Easter

hello all you journal junkies...

yeah so i haven't written in forever, but yes, I am alive.

Lots been going on lately. Don't know if I want to elaborate on it all. Life has turned in a few directions that I wasn't expecting and I'm not gonna lie, it's been hard. This semester has been a lot different than what I had orginally expected. Some of the things have been bad, and some have been good. But i'm trucking along.

I've learned or am in the process of learning where my priorities are and what I need to do about them. I have not partied nearly as much as I did last semester, and I know that I've been better off for it. Though, I do miss a lot of the fun times I had last semester, and I miss hanging out with the group of people I usually do, but it's all good. Don't get me wrong, I have been having my share of fun. Just, different that's all.

Sometimes I feel like I've grown up too fast, and am making up for it here in my college years. Sort of revisiting my child-like self. I've been looking into the characteristics about myself that I am proud of, and then I look at the things that I know I need to change. But, I don't know if I'm ready to change them all just yet. It seems like such a big step that I'm not sure I'm ready for. I know this seems like all jibberish and stuff....but for some reason, it makes a lot of sense to me.

Anyway, it's officially easter sunday and I'm here at school. Not going to lie, I really wish that I was at home with my family. It's been the first holiday ever that I haven't been with at least one side of my family. I can't help but think of all of the things that I'm going to miss....
Going from home to home to celebrate it with both families,
grandma's (sorta burnt) anadama bread,
the easter egg hunt and all my little cousins running everywhere and shaking the eggs to find the ones with money in them,
hanging out with kerry, kate, laura, and patsy,
fussing over all the kids and their easter dresses and what the easter bunny brought them,
the always present easter bunny cake with all of the birthday names on them (including mine!!)
and just seeing my humongous family...

I don't know, this is just hitting me really hard. Stupid work!! So, instead of having my delicious family cooking, I will be attempting to cook my own ham with my roomie Christine, and we will have our own little easter before I have to go to work. Seriously though, I was in the supermarket the other day buying the ham, and I almost started crying in the middle of the freaking dairy aisle! so, because I was so depressed, I bought myself some flowers. lol, my favorite flowers ever, Daisies!

GRR!! I'm trying no to be so blah about it, and make it a good day for me and Christine cause she can't go home either. AND, we're inviting over all the people who can't go home for easter, so we will have a little easter-away-from-home party. minus the booze.

So, for my family: I miss you and love you.
And for everyone else: Happy Easter!
and for those of you who don't celebrate easter: Have a good day!
