My Summer

By
So growing up my family didn't vacation. We moved. Right now I am on vacation. I am visiting my family in Philadelphia, PA. Then on Thursday my brother, Jayson, and I are taking the train to New York City. I am so excited. Mainly because I am going to world's largest Forever 21 in Times Square. Oh and two Broadway shows--Rent and The Book of Mormon. Oh and if I am lucky, I might meet my roommate for coffee/tea! Last summer I didn't get to go anywhere because I was in summer school all summer so that I could skip my junior year. This summer I feel so free. Especially since I somehow landed into my FIRST job and it's FULL time--9 to 6 Monday through Friday. I teach first grade (and art for two hours a day for various ages) at a summer camp/enrichment program. I would have been at work for a half an hour already. Oh my goodness this is a well-deserved break. For any of you reading this who wants to be a teacher, I HIGHLY commend you. It takes a lot. Wayyy more than I have. Oh and not to mention that I am getting minimum wage for all this. I even have to come up with my own curriculum! I specifically chose to become a trauma surgeon so that I wouldn't have to deal with people whining and stuff. Haha that sounds so mean. I'm not even going to lie, though. I miss my kids :( (and the cute guy I work with heehee)


So I am going to be back at home on late on the 22nd, and then I have to go to work the 23rd. I am not living at home during the week because my house is like 28 minutes from work, and my dad's apartment is literally 4 minutes from work. However, not being at home so much of the time has its downfalls. I have absolutely no time to get my stuff ready for Davidson. I am freaking out. I don't even know how I am going to get there. I am taking my car, but I drive a mini cooper.


Be jealous (this one is not mine but looks just like it)






As you can see...I can't fit diddly squat in my car. My dad mentioned renting a truck...but I can't plan with such vague details! I know I sound like a control freak. Don't judge me. I'm not. It's just all or nothing with me.


So my last day of work will be July 31st...which seems like an adequate amount of time to get myself together don't you think?? NO! Because I'm doing Service Odyssey from Aug. 4-11. (hit me up if you're going too!)  I hope it will all work itself out. I don't handle stress too well. At least not my own. Haha

    I officially hate you. You're going to New York... ok, I can handle that... You're going to Broadway... Ugh, that hurt a little bit... But RENT?? Oh no, no, that's my dream you're going to live...

    Just kiddin' of course - have fun! Seems you're having a very busy summer, but the all this work also seems to be rewarding! :) And, to make you feel better about preparing your stuff... I'm way behind you in that aspect; I'm travelling to Davidson with two suitcases, and that's all I'm starting with... I'll probably bring more stuff from home along the way. Maybe, if you don't want or don't have time to rent a van, you could also start with as much as you can fit in that mini and ship the rest in the following weeks... :)

    But do bring your handmade bulletin board!
