Rants, Revelations, and Incredibooth

Salutations :)
    I don't want to be the Negative Nancy of Blogspot here, but I have had a ROUGH past few days. Early last Thursday morning I took a little spill down the stairs, giving myself a concussion and still have not been back to school for the second semester. These past few days have involved dizzy spells, headaches, vomiting, and random sleeping patterns. I tried to make it to school Friday but ended up basically passing out and scaring my dear friends and teacher. I went back to the doctor today and have an appointment tomorrow to get a CT scan. I'm a little bit apprehensive because I don't want anything major to be damaged. Hopefully all will go well.
    This brings me to the next thing I'd like to discuss. And that, my friends, is the importance of winding down, taking a break, recharging your batteries, and setting your priorities straight. I have had to deal with this concussion and going back to school with loads of things to study for (ACT, AP Exam, EOCs) and music to learn including All-State music, Governor's School music, which I can probably no longer do, and musical auditions. I have been sitting at home with my stomach in knots stressed to death because of these things, and the doctor is telling me I can't be at school. Not to mention my mother is also sick, and I can't help but worry about her. Point is, it is not a good time for me unfortunately. And this period of time has made me realize that I need to sit down and prioritize my time. I need a break. I need to recharge and just learn to let go of certain things and accept that I just can't do everything I want to do. I need to take it easy the rest of the school year. You need to be optimistic and sometimes say, "Screw it," and chill and do things that make you happy and surround yourself with positive things.
    Now that I am through with my rant and revelations, there is nothing else for me to discuss except I discovered this new app called Incredibooth that is on iTunes for $1.99 maybe? Anyway, I have been passing my time posing for it stupidly. If you follow me on Instagram than you have noticed my use of the photostrip look. I really like it, and I enjoy the series of photos sort of thing so a little mini story pans out in front of you. So, because I like to have some sort of visual with a blog, I am posting these embarrassing pictures. Your welcome.
For book and song: Still reading the same thing for class but I just spent a portion of an iTunes gift card and got some Charlotte Sometimes and Noah & the Whale. Specifically the song "5 Years Time" by the latter is fantastic.
There's more but I honestly think this is more than enough.
