Daily life and schedule for a 17 year old teen girl. Learn about common concerns that come up with the teenage group. This covers 17 years old through 17.25 years old. Read about teen life and working through injury.
This is a summary for McKenna from 17 years old to 17.25 years old.
SLEEP and EAT
This is all going along well and as usual! McKenna has no concerns in these areas. Something amazing about this summer as we have traveled around is seeing how easily and quickly McKenna and sleep. She can sleep basically anytime, anywhere. She also doesn’t seem to reach the point of too much sleep.
SCHOOL
School ended really well! She finished the school year and her college classes without any issues. A class she took and loved is guitar. It is always a really great class. She absolutely loves to play the guitar. She is excited to be a senior this upcoming school year!
WORK
She is still working at her small job. She is considering adding a second job (still part-time).
PIANO
She is still taking piano lessons, but due to a very busy summer, she hasn’t had a lesson in many weeks. She will start lessons again soon. We have to pay whether or not she goes (which is very understandable), so Brayden has actually been going in her place. That has been fun for him.
TRACK
Track was really fun. She had some highs, but also some frustrations as she has dealt with an issue in her leg/ankle/foot area still. We went to the podiatrist again and did another examination and got a different diagnosis. We are working on treatment for that right now to determine if that diagnosis is correct.
Beyond the injury, she absolutely loves track. She loves to interact with other students from all around at track meets and loves to meet new people.
SPRING BREAK
Spring break was all the way back at the beginning of this time period. We were going to go to Jerusalem over spring break, but for obvious reasons, we cancelled that trip. We went to Arches National Park instead. We had a lot of fun there.
SUMMER
This summer has been very busy and very fun for her. We did a 9 day family road trip across the country. She spent a week at FSY (a church youth camp). She has had another church youth camp with the young women in our area (and she went white water rafting!). She has had one family reunion so far. She has also had a trip to Costa Rica. So she hasn’t been home much, but she has had a very fun summer.
SCHEDULE
Here is a typical school day schedule:
6:40 AM — Get up and get ready for school
8:00 AM — School starts. School, then track practice
5:00 PM — Get home from school. Work. Homework
10:00 PM — In bed
For summer…I can’t even really put a schedule or routine down for what has been happening this summer.
