I just got word
that I am now a Student Ambassador.
After an entire semester of waiting... I am just so overwhelmed.
400 applications and only 65 were selected.
I think this has the potential to be everything I was looking for. The brand new friends I've been craving. Last night was BEYOND cool. I usually feel like the odd ball because I always say hi to people and introduce myself... I think it's my inner navy brat. The part of me that hates being the new kid in class and always wants to make friends... I don't know. But last night I felt like I was in a room of 100 people with my attitude. Everyone WANTED to know me, know my name. And I wanted to know everyone else's.
I have the SA retreat tonight. I have no idea what to expect and I love it.
Let's see...
I suppose I'm pretty settled back in to my school life. I really do love it here. I want to get EVEN MORE involved in the 2 1/2 years I have left.
I didn't audition for a cappella... and I can't decide if I regret it. I was VERY unprepared and I don't think I would have done well HAD I auditioned... but by the same token, I would have gotten the experience and been better prepared if/when I do audition.
Anywho. Forget regrets or life is mine to miss, right?
Right.
Momma and I have been talking a little bit. I'm glad we're talking about it... but I don't know how to tell her that it really ISN'T going to go away. Like... I know she thinks it will, but at the same time, it's been 2 and a half years. It's time for her to consider the possibility that it's really just a part of me. It's time for her to at least make an effort to get to know Melissa. Even if she just has to tell herself that she is just a friend. It's what I want more than anything.
But talking about it is better than nothing, and I am thankful for that.
Ok. I need to gather my belongings and prepare to let SA infiltrate my soul.
...Or something like that.
Peace, love && GO DUKES!
