I really don’t feel like a teenager anymore. I like it too. It seems stupid to say that “oh, I turned 20, so I don’t feel young anymore”, but in the last month or so, I have defiantly, no doubt about it, grown up. My mindset has changed. Not to say I feel OLD, but I am not a child anymore.
I’ve realized this because I want different things even than in September. I want to settle down and have a place that is my home, not just a house. I am sick of school; I want to go to work, make money, and come home to a love/lover and relax. I want to find joy in grocery shopping, in taking daily walks, and in picking flowers out of my garden to put in a vase on the kitchen table.
These feelings don’t seem fleeting. They are here to stay. I have so much planned out in my head, but there is only one person I can share my thoughts with on the matter.
Okay now that all the emotional stuff is out, how about some updates on life:
THIS
Is my new baby. I love it. It doesn’t leave my side. I sleep with it in between my legs at night.
Okay the last sentence is a lie, but not far from the truth.
I am signing the lease on my new house today and I have never been so excited in my life for a new house. It is in a quieter/safer/well-lit neighborhood, half a mile closer to campus, and way closer to downtown. On my walk to school I pass Pete’s and Brooklyn Bagel Works. I live with only girl roommates who do their dishes. My life is going to greatly improve and I am SO stoked.
I am having the best month in my life, but I have a feeling that next month will be better. I love that feeling.
I LOVE MY GIRLS.
PS. Who is going to Owen at Slim’s?? I am!
Hahahahahahaha
Don’t ask.
