I can go for 3 weeks+ without washing underwear and still have some to wear. Thats a lot of underwear.
Anyway, im almot done packing, most of my junk is in the car. I need to get some food but thats about it. I have spent at leat 600 dollars getting myself to school, clothes, room stuff everything down to shampoo and laundry detergent and toilet paper and i havent even bought my books yet. I really hope it'll be worth it.
I worked so hard and so much this summer, but it feels worth it. And without help from everyone, my mom, my Auntie Carol, Auntie Ann, my Memer and Peper, The Curries, Julianna, Julie, absolutely everyone, I dont know how I would have been able to get to where I am.
I am going to college on Monday with decent clothes after looking like a slob for most of this year. I have a great computer, a new phone that is paid for for the next 2 years, stuff to decorate my room, and everything i need-- right down to half a pound of Kenya blend coffee :) I'm grateful for everything; some of it seemed like it would never ever come my way, I never thought I would be able to get this far.
Monday morning I leave for Newport, to a school dominated by rich kids. I am not and will never be a rich kid. I will be there becuase I am a very very blessed girl and I will never forget that. I just hope that someday I can help someone as much as I have been helped.....
