I promise you this, a little's enough
from may 14th
Another school year has come and gone. And its so hard to believe that next year I'm going to be a senior. I'm not sure how I feel about that. I like going to school and I'm not so sure I want to be done yet, I know I need to grow up. But I also think that by living at home I've had to grow up a lot. I can't just stay out all night, I have responsibilities at home and with my family. I don't have the massive support group that is a college dorm hallway or apartment for that matter. I have to leave for class practically an hour before people that live on campus have to think about even getting up for class. But I by no means, think that I've totally grown up. I don't ever want to either, I'll always be a kid at heart, I like playing dress up and running through sprinklers, and playing in sandboxes, playing tag, swinging on the swing set, everything and anything that is being a kid, I love.
So I'll reflect on the school year... first semester was... interesting. I think more was going on in my personal life than in my school life, but I was much more focused than I was in the spring. It was a semester of firsts, lots of learning, and some of the most fun I've ever had. I took a class that made me change my idea of what I might want to do with my life, I got better grades than I ever thought was even possible (3.83...who does that?), I made some new friends, it was overall a good semester. My personal life on the other hand was an emotional rollercoaster. I lost my grandmother at the end of the semester, and 10 days later my family and I recieved the greatest blessing in the world in a little girl named Elizabeth Mae, she seriously is the biggest blessing ever.
Spring semester was good. The course load was an interesting one, and I was taking a class that I shouldn't have been, but of course didn't find this out until it was too late. Oh well... life goes on. I spent a lot of time with my ffbff and I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have known what to do without her through everything. I spent a ton of time with my family. Made a new group of friends who I enjoy spending my time with a lot, and I'm looking forward to a really fun summer. I missed T. Feldman the whole time. I became closer with my stooges. And school kind of just fell in place. I was not nearly as focused as I was the previous semester and I'm sure that will show when I get my grades. But overall, it was good.
And now I'm just working 36 hours a week at the daycare, and if something else comes up, I'm going to jump on it. As for life, fixing things is always good. Making new friends is cool. And waiting things out might be the best policy. Letting everything fall into place one might say.
I <3 summer, simple things, my family, my friends, and music. They are all I need to make me happy :)
