I'm procrastinating on packing, I'm kinda scared but I'm sure its natural to be scared. This is a huge step for me and its going to be huge acomplishment. To think about where I was at the beginning of the summer to where I am now is also an acomplishment. I think is amazing how much I've done, the amazing friends I've made/friendship grown and the adventures we have had.
Today, I've put 10,000 miles on my car since that day that we left to go to PA and then to Toledo, Ohio. That was the longest, most amazing drive ever. The events that lead up to it, not so much but the outcome was life changing. Although it came with a little bit of a scare, it was worth it. I have no regrets. There have been times where I've had $1.65 and went places with just the $30 in my pocket, a spot on a list and my friends in the back seat of my car. If you are not one of the 6 of us (Jamie, Marina, Keaton, Bex, Ally or Myself) you have no idea what this feels like but all I can tell you its amazing. I loved this summer and I'm so glad everything that happpened, happened. :D I know I've made life long friends and hey, maybe I lost a friend or two but ya know what? Their loss, not mine. I have plenty of people who are just as much of(maybe more) of a friend than they were to begin with.
The only thing I missed out on is the GC adventures but honestly I'm not so sad because with the money that I would have spent seeing GC, a band who will never know my name (We are still just the girls from Boston), I spend travelling in Amsterdam (my car) and growing up as every mile passed.
Summer isn't over just yet, Tonight its You Me and Everyone We Know and The Dear Hunter <3 Tomorrow Keaton and I are going to Providence to meet up with Isa, Katie and Shell. I highly doubt we are going inside but it'll be nice to see everyone and JEN will be there :D Then, Saturday Ally and Taylor worked their magic and we are going to The Morning Light/The Hush Sound in CT. Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, I'm closing at Tealuxe but I'm 95% sure The Scenic boyz will be staying at Keaton's. Keaton's mom is going away just in time for us to pick up and leave on Tuesday night, go to Albany and NYC for Envy On The Coast. The girl will come back here for Envy in Providence but I'm pretty sure I'm going to PA to see Perkasie and Ben. Then I have the rest of the week and weekend off to pack and enjoy life. THEN THE MONDAY AFTER I MOVE INTO MY APARTMENT. I'm so stoked.
School needs to start so I have more structure in my life and I'm taking my car off the road so there will be no road trips for a while. I'm probably better off that way anyways.
I'm Livin' The Dream and wouldn't have it any other way.
p.s. my horoscopes have be 100% correct since Buffalo
This is Today's:
You may feel strongly about following your heart today and making time for recreation, yet you become more serious about work as the day continues to unfold. The pressure of knowing what needs to be done may build until you reach a threshold of discomfort and decide to take care of unfinished business. Once you get going, don't worry about working fast; keeping up a steady pace is all that's necessary.
