Hi Sydney! 🙂 I just discovered your blog today, and […]
So as spoken about in my previous post I am facing a serious change in my high school. They are planning to switch to a single lunch instead of the current 2. Our school was built to have 2 lunches so if they do this we will not all fit in the cafeteria, therefore food […]
