's' is for stress

you have no time.
i have no patience.

stressing about OSAP, stressing about scholarships, stressing about work, stressing about money, stressing about tuition. i don't know how people do it, but because people do, i know it's possible. it's just on my mind right now.
last night i was on the phone with rachelle stressing about picking courses. it's over and done now and i am pretty content with my schedule.

i went to Goetz today to order my high school transcripts. honestly, nothing has changed. it felt so natural walking through the front doors and straight to the guidance office like we often did back then. everything is still where it was. i said i would never miss high school. and for a while i thought i actually was missing it. i know now that i miss the memories made. i got goosebumps when i left the building because that's when i realized how natural it still feels. how it feels like i never really left high school yet. it made me happy and sad at the same time. i wish rachelle was there with me.

the rest of my day consisted of lakeshore and bookstores. up the light house, down the marina. on the swings up high in the sky. sitting by the lake, feet dangling off the edge. this afternoon was free of worries and full of freedom.

i've got one more day until i'm back to work. back to saving money. back to life. but these dilemmas make afternoons like this feel so good.
