It does feel like this month is really long, probably because its the last month of school

I'm stuck in the middle, it feels long because it is the last month of school, but it also feels short with my sports, and my tree is blossoming. (with flowers(then it turns to an ugly crinkly orange mess)

They are pretty cool looking while they bloom though. (I'm not really a plant person)

Haha, LOL, I always thought the same thing! they always look so..... disgusting after they bloom.
