When it became time to write this blog, I was clueless about where to start. So, I figured the simplest, yet most informational, tactic to use is to go through my life in chronological order. And so it begins: My birthday is January 20, 2006. I haven't obtained a memory thus far until about 4 years old when my parents divorced. Throughout my elementary school years, I worked through a speech impediment that I over overcame in the third grade. In middle school (or the upper elementary school), I did CMS Singers, and I despised every second of it. I also started the band in middle school. I was first chair percussionist most of the time I was in the band. My time in volleyball began in the sixth grade. I started off as a middle and then ended off as an outside. I continued with club and school volleyball until the end of my ninth-grade season. I realized that it caused way too much anxiety for something that was supposed to be fun.
High school is where a lot of things start to happen. I committed to therapy and have been going since early freshman year. I got on the freshman homecoming court. I quit the band after being on the front-row marimba line for the whole marching band season. I realized I should keep up with academics. Starting sophomore year, I began with student of the month and finished off with the Contemporary Issues in Education award. Now, we are super early into junior year, but I'm already loving it. I love IB and the teaching style it brings. Most students are hesitant to get a grasp on the IB program, but it is so worth it.
Now that my rant about me in school is complete, let us get on to more personal stuff. My favorite color is purple. I have TONS of cats. I have one sister and two (about to be three) brothers. My favorite way to spend time is to go on adventures. I love experiences and concerts. I adore Harry Styles, Taylor Swift, One Direction, and Elvis Presley. I love books such as Malibu Rising, Daisy Jones and the Six, Smile and Look Pretty, The Color Purple, Such a Fun Age, and much more. I love hanging out with my friends and family. I look forward to continuing my education in psychology and finance. I enjoy going to church on Sundays and Wednesday nights. My favorite shows consist of Stranger Things, The Office, Dance Moms, and Bridgerton. My favorite season is either Spring or Summer, but I do love me some winter. Christmas and Halloween are top-notch holidays. I find great happiness when I have to get ready for an event. Last but not least, I'd like to think that I put others before me in any situation.
Great blog Allison! I definitely feel like I know you better even though I have technically known you since you were a tiny baby. I'm excited for you to be a part of the CHS IB program! I know you are going to do great things!!
