Transitions

So life as I’ve known it for the past few years is about to change radically. I’ll be leaving my job of two years in two weeks. I’ll be graduating from college in three weeks, and I’ll be getting married in a little under three months. Ever since I can remember, I’ve been going to school–and I’m really going to miss it. I can’t believe all the really cool classes I can’t take anymore. I eventually want to get my master’s degree, but in what area? I’m not sure. I’ve got to start looking for a real, full time, use my education job. I love my job now, and I’m sad that I can’t work there once I graduate. Hopefully I’ll be able to find a great job (as in something I love to do) before too long. I’m not sure how to go about getting the kinds of jobs I’d love, but I’ll figure it out (if anyone wants to hire a writer/ editor/ all around great employee, I’m here!).

For the next few weeks I’m going to savor all of the things and people in my life. Sure, I can come back and visit them, but it just isn’t the same feeling. That’s life, I suppose. But don’t get me wrong, I am very excited about this new chapter in my life–who knows what kinds of adventures and experiences I’ll have? It’s going to be great! I just feel like all this greatness snuck up on me when I wasn’t looking!

Home, Sweet Home.

Well, not too much has happened between now and the last time I updated, minus the fact that I am now residing in my very own (and 4 other girls who are not currently here’s) apartment! I love it, and and having a lot of fun buying the little things that turn an empty place into a home. I never realized how much stuff is needed just to live like a normal person before this experience!

It is definitely a looooong way from being finished, or completely furnished for that matter, but I just feel really at home here already! Sure there have been some kinks in the system, weird sounds, paint smells, etc., but I don’t have to move until I graduate! What a delightful feeling! :)

Of course, I miss my roomies. It is dreadfully quiet here at night, which is good for sleeping, but not very exciting. And I have a ton of empty space that is begging to be filled. But really, more than their pots and pans and tables and chairs, I wish I had their hilarious antics and smiling faces. The apartment won’t be right without them.
