so here is an entry....
i was thinking...yesterday (july 31st) marked the day i left last summer to come back home from working in illinois for awhile. and it was crazy to me that it had already been a year. years go by so fast. and even though while i was in illinois i just wanted to come home to hang w/ friends, looking back on it now, it was nice to spend that much time w/ relatives because you really don't get to do that very often at all. this summer a few things would just remind me of illinois and going there every summer, and how much i always looked forward to that, and those summers just seem so far away. i definitely cannot go a summer w/o thinking of it, because well, that is what my summers used to be. and especially around the 4th of july, i miss it.
but...i have spent my summer here in sb. and that had been a lot of fun just chillin w/ the homies and having no school to worry about. i have been working orientation and we have four sessions left (it goes by soo fast) orientation definitely has been a good experience and i am glad i did it, but i dont think i would be able to do it again. there were things that didnt live up to what i thought it would, but all in all it was something i am happy about. it is very time consuming however, but i think that is good because it made me become very responsible for things because i care about this job and want to try to have the most energy i can while working those 6:45am-11:30pm shifts. several times i have had to miss out on things because i had to go to bed early and was at work all day so missed out on things in the afternoon, but i still got my fun in, dont worry. haha.
so this summer definitely has been a good one so far. i love being here, but it is weird how far away from home i feel. i have been home for three nights total since spring break, all of which have only been a night at a time. it's weird because in that time i have lost touch w/ some people even further, and do not talk to old friends hardly as often as i am used to. i visited my best friend this past week since she is going abroad i wont be seeing her till january! two years ago i would have cried my eyes out, but now it is just so normal to not see her often anyway.
so two weeks left in sb, then off to home for a little bit, then off to camp ronald mcdonald. aside from camp, it should be a pretty relaxed rest of the summer. yes!!
