introducing a new project idea

  Hello, my study friends, Now that school has officially begun (for me at least), I thought that initiating a mini-blogging project would be a really good way to kick-start this blog!

After a few tries, I'm finally feeling content with what I've created and I hope you are too!  To make this a smooth and enjoyable reading experience, I've put together a Q&A to answer some questions you may have about me and my blog. I know how daunting long paragraphs can be, so let's keep it reader-friendly with easy-to-follow bullet points: Who is Omi, and what is this blog about? - I am Omi, a student of the International Bacceularete Diploma Programme, also known as the IBDP program. (For future reference, I will be calling it the IB program.) - I am currently completing my Pre-Diploma Program (PDP) year, a special preparatory year for the two-year IB program.
