How was YOUR month? Favorite thing that happened? When is the last time you ate Chinese? Have you ever played tennis? Did you complete your January goals? What are some of your goals for February? Lets chat in the comments below :)
Congratulations on finishing up 12th grade!!! Are you planning to continue studying? I didn't get the flu shot, but my brothers did and they're sick!! ~Mary
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mary!!! I'm actually planning on taking a year off and then I guess we'll see what happens :)
DeleteOh no. I hope they feel better. We're all really sore from it, but so far none of us are sick.
It looks like you've had a great month! LUCKY YOU GOT SNOW. I need snow. All we have in the PNW is rain. Rain. And more rain. Topped of with clouds. xD

I sure did!! I LOVE GETTING SNOW!!
DeleteWow what a beautiful place to live, even though you do get a lot of rain xD
Wow, January is nearly over already??? How in the world!! I always say months go by so fast, and they do! :D
ReplyDeleteThis month was great!! I think my favourite thing about it was visiting Scotland - of course, who wouldn't be excited about that! ;)
I actually don't know when I last ate Chinese! I know we haven't eaten any this year yet ... we always make homemade Chinese, but sometimes we treat ourselves and get some authentic Chinese from the takeaways! ;) It's soooo good! :D
I haven't played Tennis before, but I have played Table Tennis - which is ping-pong! British people call it Table Tennis, which makes sense ... it's just a small version of the real Tennis! ;) I'd probably be awful at the real thing! :p
I'm looking forward to February ... well, because it's my birthday month!!! *jumps up and down* And I'll be 18!!! :D Someone we know is SOOOO excited that I'm turning 18, it's hilarious! :D She just goes on and on about it! :p
Yay for accomplishing most of your goals!! *overlooks the one you didn't finish* ;) I'm still writing "Journey by Accident" and that's going well. Hope you can write some in your book next month!
Goodbye, January!!!! *cries* ;)
I KNOW!! I CANT BELIEVE IT'S OVER!
DeleteOh yes! That was DEFINITELY a highlight for you :D
Really? I absolutely love Chinese food!! We've made homemade general Tso and homemade fried rice before and it was SO GOOD!
Ping pong is SO MUCH FUN! We have a ping pong table at our church and we (the young people at church) play every Sunday and Wednesday. Tennis was a lot of fun too. It was the first time I had played since I was like 8, so it took quite a while getting used to it again ;)
YAY!!! *jumps up and down with you*
I hope I can too :)
Happy February, Rosalyn <3
Love this post!! It’s so awesome to look back on the first month of the new year and see all of the fun stuff and things I’ve accomplished! And, also, the “so this is Christmas” thing is SO funny! That sounds like my family😋 Have a great February!!

ReplyDeleteOoh, Chinese food is really good! There's Chinese restaurant near us that we love and my mom used to work at. Its delicious. :) I have never played tennis, but it looks fun.
Thanks, Kendra! Oh that's totally ok :)
DeleteI KNOW! I LOVE Chinese food! Tennis is a lot of fun. I hope you get to play it sometime :)
I don't make monthly goals but I think I might start this month. :) Other than that, my month went pretty well.
