As the next wave rolls in
Lesson: Appreciate life for today.
Life changes, no surprise.
This is almost surreal. It is FINALLY here. We are moving and finally leaving this college town behind. We’ve been planning/thinking/talking about this day since December. I cannot believe it is practically here.
This town has been home for the past 6 years. This town CHANGED my life, it completely made me who I am today. If it wasn’t for THIS town, I don’t know where I would be. I would be a different person and I wouldn’t have Mark. College was the best thing that ever happend to me. (Of course I say that now, but ask me when I’m unemployed and I’ll say it’s the worst mistake one could ever make.)
Tomorrow is MY LAST DAY of work. I’ve been waiting for this day for 13 months, and it’s finally here. It’s the greatest feeling to leave that dumpy job behind. And what will tomorrow bring???
The other day a girl at work said something about going on vacation around May 13th and I said the first thing that came to mind, "Oh my gosh, where will my life be May 13th??" That’s just such a crazy thought.
I have no job waiting for me in my new town. I somewhat know my way around town. I know people, but they’re all Mark’s friends. But people move to new, strange cities and towns ALL the time. I’m certainly not the first. Of all the things there is to worry about, I’m most worried about working. I want to love work. I want to enjoy having a job. I just want to money to be a bonus. How many people have that?
One thing is for sure, this move is making me greatful for all the posessions I own. Boxes are all over this place. My shoes alone fill up one giant extra large box. That is a blessing. I am greatful.
I am taking a giant leap of faith here. Just running on a dream and hoping for a better life along the way. I have hope. I have a positive attitude, 100%. Life will be good to me here.
Ready or not, the truck is leaving Friday.
I don’t know why I put zero effort into writing this tonight. I am tired. I will do better next time. I really want to remember this moment and this feeling. It’s exciting and nervous and challenging all in the same.
13 months eh? 2 months shorter than me:P and of course good luck
