I have to leave in 5 minutes to go meet Ashley to head back to Macon, but I thought I'd update super-quickly before I go. I can't believe how much I've gotten accomplished in the past week. My end-of-semester to-do list was about a mile long, and now I only have two or three things left to check off, none of which are that major. Yay! I'm starting to feel the Christmas spirit now, which is good.
Have you ever felt that change isn't really a constant? Like things are the same for a good while, then all of a sudden everything is changing and shifting all at once? That's how I feel right now. It's not an all-bad thing, and I guess it's just a part of growing up (to quote my apartment-mates, "It's a human thing"), but right now I feel like I'm in one of those phases. This past semester was different than I thought it would be, both in a good and bad way. There are some people that I'm so much closer to now than I thought I would ever be, and others that I thought I would be super-close to and we just aren't. Now we're all looking towards the future and what's going to happen past graduation-it's so exciting, but so scary! It's just not school, it's family, too...this might be my last Christmas in Athens because my mom is talking seriously about moving back to Macon next summer to be closer to me and our other family.
The times, they are a'changin'...
