I am officially on SPRING BREAK, which is very nice to think about. Funny thing, I was finished with classes this afternoon by 1:30, but I am not going home until tomorrow evening - evidently, I wasn't quite thinking when I made the reservations.
So far, I am pretty happy with this semester, things seem to be moving along at quite a fast pace - which is both good and bad. On one hand, I like the changing of classes, growing up, etc. But on the other hand, I really don't want to think about "after this semester." To me, this is a very big semester. So much has changed over time and I feel like this is the transition period.
I used to savor the thought of change and growing up and now the whole concept just terrifies me. It's hard "growing" farther and farther away from where I grew up. Not to mention, it becomes slightly harder being away from my home and my family. To be honest, I never thought I would be the one saying all of this. I am really looking forward to going home tomorrow and being able to spend the week with my family and friends. My parents are working so I will have the days to myself to just relax and hang out with the "Old Zoo." I checked the weather and some of the days are looking mighty nice - 60s/70s and sunny. I am relishing the thought of laying out in my front yard, reading, relaxing, maybe playing fetch with the dogs :)
I might even make it to the beach one day.
To me, going home IS a vacation - one I am looking forward to... and just think, when I get back, I will be 21 in just 29 days - and THAT is just fabulous!
To everyone who reads this - - have a wonderful evening/day! Stay happy and healthy! And remember to watch the Academy Awards on Sunday :)
Later, alligators....
P.S. "Democrats are sexy... who ever heard of a great piece of elephant?" <--- I got it from a bumper sticker.
