Alot has happenned in the past month
Apparently, I made an impact on Centenary....or at least some people think so.
Got some awards, it was fun. It was a huge surprise that was totally unexpected and it made my last days at Centenary that much sweeter.
I gave the "parting thoughts". It felt good to let my fellow classmates know how much I care about them.
Graduation has come and gone, & at the time I saw it hard to imagine life without Centenary and S'port. The ceremony was great and it felt so good to "pimp" across the stage. I stayed a couple of days after graduation to move out of my apartment and say some final goodbyes.
When I arrived home, I immediately had to take care of my mom. 8 days and a stint in ICU later. I am back at home playing nurse. Throughout this turbulent time, I have been unable to find a stable summer job and my relationship with my mom has been strained.
Ending with today, my 22nd birthday. Sometimes I think God is trying to tell me to become a Jehovah's Witness because my celebration never really turnout right.
WIth all of this, I am taking it as a sign. This chapter of my life has officially ended and my new one will begin on August 12th when I move to NYC. For so long, I wanted to hold onto to the past four years but I realize I have got another life to begin. I am now excited(not anxious) about my upcoming move. I am venturing into a new time and place and there is a sense of mystery tied to it all. I am invigorated...I am ready.
My next step will include graduate school, eventually medical school(yeah, I am gonna go for it) and anything else that may be in my path. I am glad that I live my life thus far and I will cherish everyone I have encountered.
I don't know how long this will last, but I am excited about the move.
