First off I want to say that my job search is going well, with lots of applications, and lots of hopeful waiting by the phone.
Now I have a best friend, Heather, whom most everyone knows and Poofy. Now she was the biggest homebody, spoiled little girl 18 year old that I know (and she knows this) but I adore her. She is the spunkiest, loudest, craziest, sweetest, most amazingly awesome friend ever. Like I said she is spoiled up until she left for college her Mom did her laundry for her, she babysat for money, and watched a lot of TV. She was terrified of growing up because it would mean that everyone she loves would age. I always told her that she would do so well in College, on her own, especially since so many of our high school classmates would be at school with her, so she wouldn’t be alone, but she was so nervous. Then within the first week she had tons of new friends! She was slowly getting out of her shell, and she was showing how amazing she is to other people. She is one of the best friends could ask for and I am proud to call her my Soul Sister.
Sorry for the quality, until I get a scanner its a picture of a picture
The whole reason I bring her up is that she texted me today saying that she is HAPPY. She’s meeting people and gaining tons of friends, and learning a lot and is getting to class on time (after some sleep issues first semester). She really inspired me to want to go back to school. She is thriving even more than I expected her to (which says a lot since I knew she’d do awesome). I love her so much and she is absolutely wonderful and I am so proud of everything that she’s done.
*Yes Stephie, I will do a blog on you too J*
Next I’ve been thinking a lot about my year off (which ends in June) and I’ve decided that it really was the best thing for me. I took a long deserved break (after wearing myself out for 3 years straight) and I definitely renewed my love for learning and school. It reminded me that I love to learn and that I thrive best when I’m learning something new. So I’ve decided that I’m started online classes soon so that I can work full time (even though I think I’ve said this) and I’m just going to throw myself into the world of being an adult. I want to be able to work toward my goal, which right now is to be comfortable and to set myself (and Josh) up for better things in the future.
It’s so weird but I honestly can’t wait to start working, to do something with my life, and to help people in some way, shape or form. I can’t wait to save up for what I want, and to give Christmas cards, and birthday presents to the people that I love. I can’t wait to surprise my love with random gifts for Graduation, or just because. I can’t wait to have pets, and to train them and take care of them, and to have them with me when Josh isn’t home. I can’t wait to grow up. To get married, have kids, buy a house, a car or two, take vacations, learn new things. I just can’t wait to learn about myself and the people that I love…
I can’t wait to start living.
