We All Have Stories To Tell
I don't have much longer in Music City before I head back down to the swamp. My first final is one week from Thursday!!! How did this semester squeak by unnoticed? If you have the answer to that I'd love to meet you! It's going to be ridiculously weird to go home and take classes at SFC again. I won't see a mac in every other person's hands. I won't get to enjoy gazebos. There's no history behind SFC, and if there is it is in no way comparable to the history of BU. Perhaps the weirdest part about taking classes at SFC is that I won't see the familiar faces of my friends up here. I won't be able to reflect on things that my friends here know and get with friends back home. It's weird; the only thing I have with friends back home is the past. The thought of friendships back home almost seem fake now. I don't want to say that I have nothing in common with friends back home, because I do! I just don't have the same level of connection with them as I do with friends up here. No one will understand Volman's crazy antics, and the ridiculous stuff that comes out of his mouth.
It's also going to be weird not studying the entertainment industry! This semester I had at least two classes related to the entertainment industry, and the same goes for this next semester! I have a feeling I'll feel cut off from the entertainment world (and no, I don't consider MTV to be the heart of the entertainment world)! Could I become an avid USA Today reader when I go home?!? I don't have friends back home who I can geek out with about music stuff. No one back home really cares about copyrights and who owns what rights to a song. People back home don't look at music from a business perspective (I didn't either until I moved up here). Being back in Florida this summer will, however, provide SO MANY MORE SHOWS for me to go to!!!!
Hopefully I'll put many miles on my car this summer with road trips to keep my sanity while in Gainesville!!! I'm thinking Orlando to see Caitlin and maybe Devin, South Florida to see Bree and Allen, Pcola to see Nicholas, Jax to see Rachel and Vanessa, VA to see Brian and Blaise, and Music City to see Kourt and Grace. Of course the Florida ones are the most likely to happen, but the others would certainly be lovely! Oh, add to the list DC to see Julie because she's leaving me in Gainesville by myself for the summer because she has a potential job (job?! who needs a job?!?)
I suppose overall I'm eager to see what this summer has in store for me. Summer has made itself quite comfortable in a place in my heart, and I've found that summer has been a season of change in my life for the past three years. This summer has the potential to do an amazing work in my life, and I hope that I welcome this work with open arms!
