A Week of Goodbyes


Hello all,

Today is Thursday, and I depart Philly-bound on Monday.  This is technically my first move in sixteen years.  Shopping is done, and plans and hypotheticals are no longer helpful - the mundane aspects of packing and moving are well underway (towels are currently in the wash). 

Yesterday was Muffin Day - four childhood friends and I spent the day making muffins and eating nothing but muffins.  Wreaked some minor havoc on the digestive tract, but as good a "going away party" as any.  This morning, I said goodbye to the home-schooling group where I spent a lot of my early childhood - later today, I'll be seeing a few close friends from last year's summer theatre for the last time before school starts.

There are a good few things I'll miss about home - I have a few good friends I'll miss seeing.  I'll miss the theatre community around here.  I think it'll just be weird having to adjust to a new everything.  But I'm more excited than scared or sad, really.  I'm looking forward to everything college and quasi-adult life has to offer me.  I'm feeling focused and ready to make something of myself.  I hope this lasts beyond orientation!


Or, my new home. =)

Until next time,

Ana

  2. Hey Ana, this is le_moofin/Kaiti from MdN! Just wanted to say that I wish there was a Muffin Day around here (I love love love muffins) and that I understand the excited/scared/sad feelings. I'm leaving for college in a week, so we're in the same boat. :)
