so my birthday was rather uneventful. Not a lot happened in the least. I went out to dinner with two friends from here which was actually really great. Then we had a game night which was just as fun :) I'm beginning to like being here in the summer... so much so that I'd consider it again for next summer. Odd huh? I will probably come back though I realize now. *shrug* It's not so bad at all :) Besides... this coming year is my last at college so one last summer fling of it would be nice. I'm not going to count that semester of student teaching because well... it's student teaching lol. Good God I'm getting older... not sure how much I like that. I'm 22 now! I have no more exciting birthdays coming up. I'm legal for everything now... except I still have a problem with renting a car. They prefer you to be either 25 or have full coverage on your car (which I cannot afford). So I guess I have that to look forward to lol. Actually, I have a lot to look forward to. I can't help but be excited when I think about where my life is going to go. I have a year left of school, it's going to be my hardest and longest year of my college career I think but it'll be worth it. After that I have a summer where I can do what I want (which will hopefully not be taking classes because I was screwed out of ones I need during the year...) and then a summer of student teaching, half of which will be in England if all goes well. Then after that... I graduate in Dec. of 2005... then I have my sisters wedding (YOUNGER sister mind you...) in June of '06 then I leave for the Peace Corps... that's about 2.5 years away. I can't wait for it though. It's going to be awesome. Once that is done... well I may do another 2 years lol but if not then I come back to the states and get a job. An actual job. That'll be cool too though. I have this weird desire to go to a big city and rent a room in one of those huge houses and just live there for a year among all the other people in the house... how awesome would that be? I really do hope everything goes like that too... I am flexible with my plans in a way... but I don't want to have to be. Hmm... everything is going ok... I wonder what's going to happen to make it go back down? Ha- is my pessimism showing? haha
