well hello June...
Time is flying.
I now have less than a month left in Gainesville, and every week seems to pass more quickly. I never update this so I guess i'll summarize summer: graduation craziness, disney, lots of road trips, lots of shopping (it sounds easier than it actually is buying an entirely new work wardrobe), lots of sun, lots of interning, lots of apartment hunting (mostly to come)
I have to say staying in Gainesville for the summer (till the end of this month) was a great idea but it made no time for actual goodbyes somehow. everyone graduated and i continued to work and then suddenly people are in Europe, on trips, jobs, getting married and what have you. At least i suppose it allows me lazy summer weekends to say goodbye to the city itself. for my future however I am relying heavily on the internet for information, i have been in both Tampa and Birmingham for less than 24 hours in the past and soon i will live in both of these places for much longer than that. it's hard to keep up with my emotions lately, so I think i've become numb to all the changes, though every now and then there is a burst of new excitement (when i find a cute looking apartment on craigslist for example...)
i guess i have alot of decisions to make as well, certainly more than I've had in a while. I think I've finally settled on living alone next year while I get on my feet in a new city but I weaver on if that is staying too much in my comfortzone. I have lived alone, i've had weeks where I didn't talk to a soul, and was happy, but that's not exactly where any one person should stay.
well i digress..
i need to get back to my internship and planning my leadership curriculum for some local high schoolers - even though i've taught all this before getting in front of a class room of 16-18 year olds and teaching solo for a week it's still nerve racking.
have a beautiful month, all my love
