Starting Out

Well I decided to try out the whole blogging thing. At first I wasn't sure if my life was interesting enough, but then decided I didn't care. It isn't like I am forcing anyone to read this! :) Plus I feel like I am hitting a huge milestone in my life and a lot is about to change. So why not write about it.

This past week has been so bittersweet. A lot of "lasts." Last chapter, last spring semester class, last reading day, etc. Chapter on Monday made me realize what a wonderful group of friends I have made in my sorority. There are so many great girls who really care about each other and are there for each other. It was so strange seeing the alum (a year older than us) during the ceremony giving us our alum badges. I feel like it was just yesterday that we were freshman and they were sophomores or juniors. I can't believe time has flown by so quickly and how much we have all changed in four short years. I guess everyone just finally grew up and became "big kids." Happy and sad all at once! But I must say I am so happy and grateful I have gotten to know them.

Last night I went to a dinner party with four old high school friends. At first I wasn't sure if I should go. They have done a great job staying in touch and I am so awful at keeping in touch that I thought I would be the out one out. But I am so happy I went. We spent four hours chatting and catching up. The main question at the end of the night, "How the heck did we survive high school??" But I guess we did. It was another night of...wow when did we get so old? I loved going back to high school and telling all teh old stories. We did some dumb stuff but looking back some are just so funny! I really need to work on keeping in touch with them. There are so many forms of communication these days that it shouldn't be as hard as I make it.

I am also really looking forward to graduation. I am ready to start a career and move on. More I think I am ready to be back in home range of Trav and my momma and daddy. I love spending time with them and am so happy and relaxed when I am home. Guess that should be a sign I am ready. Three more classes this summer before I can head back. July 1st is the goal...the finish line. It seems so far away, but I guess I have been waiting for this day for almost three years, so what is two more months. I can't wait to see my boy whenever I want!

Well I guess that is about all for now. Off to a senior dinner for DG and then going out in downtown Athens to pretend I am a freshman again! Pretty excited!
