I feel like my heart is satisfied right now.
This has been the longest summer vacation I've ever had, but I feel like it's been the least eventful, and it's flown faster than any other.
But, the more I think about it, the more okay I am with that.
I worked. I saved quite a bit of money, which will help me out a lot when I go back to school.
I've relaxed. Plenty of "me" time. I wasn't constantly in the presence of others. I got to sleep and chill and watch movies by myself. I hung out with my mom (and the rest of my family, of course).
But, I have seen people. I've had many an enjoyable evening. Nothing exciting, but excitement isn't always necessary in a good time.
I was starting to panic, thinking that I wouldn't be able to see everyone that I wanted before I left. However, this afternoon turned out to be fantastic, and I ended up seeing lots of friends at one time. Goodbyes aren't as difficult this year, thank goodness. Because I know that my friends that are still my friends will always be there. We won't just disappear out of each other's lives. And I know what I need to do differently this year to keep in better touch.
I'm happy with the status of my relationships. Some have grown closer, and honestly, some have... faded a bit. But everything happens for a reason. People grow up. People grow apart. It sucks, but, it's okay, too.
And when I get back to Tallahassee, I have quite a few friendly faces waiting for me. I don't have to be scared of college anymore. This time I can go back and be excited. There's no reason to be sad about leaving or scared of what to expect or nervous about classes... I have a place to come home to. I have places to visit. And I have a place where visitors are always welcome.
