Hello everybody. I’m going to start by saying two things: I am NOT quitting and I won’t be for a long time, and I am so sorry for being so inactive as of late. You see, I have been dealing with a lot. I have recently lost a close family member, only a few days before my birthday. We all knew it was coming, but it was very hard on me and the rest of my family who were close to them. Then came my Birthday, it was amazing, and probably the high of this terrible time for me. After my birthday came even more family stuff I don’t really want to specify. Even though I’m not specifying, this is probably one of the worst things that have ever happened to me. As some of you know, I am currently participating in both soccer and fencing. I qualified for fencing summer nationals mid April. This is a huge deal. But this causes me to have extra practice so I can have a fighting chance. I have also been having some problems with my ankle lately, as the same part of it is getting recurrently injured. I also just have like 5 hours of homework a night and my school day lasts from 8-5 so I dont have much time left for anything extra. I hope you understand. And remember, I am not quitting. I will still check my messages around twice a day, I just won’t be making projects. I am so sorry yall. ~Echo <3
