Finally Posting?!?!?!

It's Penguin here, lol!
I think Penguin is cringey now. Like, I'm being referred to as my AJ username. I can't explain it.
But yeah, here I am. Making a post. Today's my last day of spring break and I had the motivation to post.
I don't even know if I feel like making a catch up post. I'll just sum up some quick stuff. Everything's been fine. I'm just waiting for school to end though; it's so boring at this point. I've still been at the gym working on basketball everyday. I don't know if anything else is that different.
I've been feeling nostalgic lately, but also hopeful for the future. I miss the days I posted a lot and talked with my friends here. I even miss the days when my friends at school were different and more childish. Now I just look forward to the future to see what hard work will bring. I heard in a video once by Devin Williams, a popular trainer, that "Improvement is like a drug. There's no better feeling in the world." I can relate to this on a spiritual level. And for everyone else, even you, there's got to be a passion that you love and this quote relates to everyone because of that. However, besides that quote, I have other things on mind besides my current IRL life. Sure, I love the sport I play and the things I learn, though I just feel bored and hopeless every day. I wish I could connect with friends more, real life and internet, train for basketball with other people that have a similar liking, and be able to have fun every day, whether it be at school, on the court, or anywhere. I feel like I'm not having fun lately or just enjoying life.
So, here's my plan:

- First of all, I'm going to continue training for basketball. Every day, putting in the work more than everybody else. But I'm going to try new things with my training and do more research on the topic through Youtube. Hopefully, my friends/other people that like the game will at least find a better liking or passion in the sport or something besides constantly staying at home doing nothing.
- Get through school but have a positive attitude. Honestly, I'm not being challenged that hard in school right now, and I feel n motivation. I'm tired everyday and waiting to get out of school. Prepare for next year, as I've signed up for AP classes with my friends.
-Find more motivation. If I want to go to college for both basketball and academics, and actually go to a good school, I need to motivate myself more and keep a more positive view on everything. I need to have more fun, too.
- Start posting more? I need to connect with you guys much more than I do now. I sincerely miss everyone I talked to. I miss when I was a stupid 11 year old, lol.

So I guess you can expect more posts soon. I'll try and respond to comments I haven't read. Also, I'm going to post on the Animal Jam Community soon, so stick around for that.
