Suddenly a month passed without my posting anything on my blog. But this last month has been busy. So many awesome things have happened, as well as some... Less awesome. There is a lot of stress in the air right now, as we have our finals next week... Immediately after that, though, I will be part of a day-long pasture ride in Camp Verde, something I'm very excited about! A few days after that, we're going on field trips! I will write a separate post about that (for CAS), so you'll get to know more about that, no worries. When we get back from that, there's a field trip presentation, and Thanksgiving Dinner, before most people leave for Thanksgiving Break. I will be staying on campus, along with about 30 other people. Although it would have been great to see a different part of either Arizona or the States, I am looking forward to just chilling out for a week, not doing homework or anything. It's kind of funny, I've heard people saying November is the hardest month when you're in the IB, but at VVS this certainly isn't true, academically at least. Physically, mentally and spiritually, this will probably be a challenging, but also maturing experience. I can't wait!
Since I've barely given you a sign of life from me, I thought I could show you more of the last month. It's gotten colder, and now it's almost freezing in the nighttime. Feels like home!
