First day of the rest of my life, perhaps?
Such a cliche statement, but I really do believe it now. This could very well be something I'm just telling myself to get through this pain, so to speak, but then again it could be true. I haven't decided if I want to be realistic or optimistic, but I'm at the very least in between that spectrum.
Brent, you left today. It's been a strange, unforgettable, and interesting weekend. Saturday night was your going away party at the Loop. Original plan was to get there around 10 and have, you know, a good old time dancin' it up and drinking double muds until we died. Unfortunately, that didn't happen. My sister graced us with a display of her supper after we pulled over into a random driveway. It's too bad most of it ended up in Michelle's car all over the back of the passenger seat. I freaked out on her and ended up going back home in Sarah's car, bawling, thinking that I was going to miss this ever-so-looked-forward-to night. I didn't though...we made it by midnight and still had oh so much fun.
Sunday I spent most of the day at your house, holding back tears that eventually came out when we watched your Homesick DVD (aka The Maid). Then this morning...I watched you in a black SUV, pull out of the driveway...
It was a strange feeling. I got home and I sat down and I wasn't sure what to think...or what to do with myself. You'll be happy to know that I only spent half the day being depressed. I decided I needed to just shut up with my whining because you're going to have the best time of your life over the next five years. I was also just discussing with Leigh Ann the feeling I have inside me. I really can't imagine that you'll be moving back to Windsor, ever. I can't see you doing that after being so far away for so long. I'm not exactly sad when I say it because I know you deserve every opportunity that opens up for you for the rest of your life, and I wish you well. I'm just anxious for my day to come! Two more years!!! Seven more if that darn bank makes me pay back my loan *grumpy face*.
I can't wait to come up. Hopefully I'll be able to make it next summer for 2 weeks or something. That would be looooovely. I'm truly excited for you now. I was selfish all along but now I'm realizing that you're life is changing so much, I should be supportive and congratulate you on being so successful thus far.
So I have orientation tomorrow and I was going to make my sister come with me, but I've decided to just go myself. I can't have people holding my hand anymore. The Brent chapter of my life has (somewhat) ended, and tomorrow I start a new chapter. It's exciting, nerve-racking, and weird all at the same time. I'm not one to take well to change, especially at first, but I think this change is going to work out for the best.
I DEFINITELY gotta learn to bring out my own crazy.
I got my new license in the mail today with my brand new picture. I'm excited that I don't have to be scared of being turned away at the bar now (considering how different I look from my 16 year old license picture), but I see that my face has, ermm, grown in size within the last 5 years. What was I to expect? Anyhow, it's sweet. As Leigh put it, they VOOMed in on my face.
I watched the Labyrinth and The Neverending Story today. I also ate a lot, swam, read a lot, and am now interneting a lot. It's been a strange day and I still am not sure what to do with myself. I had to get up at an inhumane hour this morning which has made the day seem hella long, but it was worth it.
Signing out I suppose
HaLiFaX WHAT!
Crystal Robertson Damm Burden Laliberte Wigle do I have other friends?
