I feel like a lot of things have happened since I last wrote. I hung out with some friends, worked of course, oh, and turned 19 finally. My birthday was interesting. Aaron came the day before and celebrated with me. We had a fun time together, even though we didn't end up making it to Station Square for dinner. I was just happy that he was with me. On my actual birthday, I went to church and then family came over for a late lunch and dessert. It was pretty fun, but nothing too extraordinary. I was able to go out to dinner with Amy, Karen, and Megan at Applebees though and that was a good time. Amy and I got sung to (free dessertttt). Afterwards, all of us headed to the church to say hi to Brian, but that was kind of an epic fail. Alas, I became a year older. I am happy to say that I did not get my wisdom teeth out, go to Cedar Point, or get hit in the head with a frisbee this year. Woo!
Hmm...I really can't remember what else I've been up to. Aaron's visited a couple times and I've gone out to Agawam, which is always a highlight. :) I finally met up with Alyssa at Panera and we talked forever...so awesome. I also hung out with Katelyn and Jill one night at Starbucks, which was a lot of fun. I hadn't seen Katelyn since last fall and Jill since Christmas break so it was so nice to catch up. Ummm other than that, I guess just work. As I've mentioned before, I really love work. There's been so much drama recently, but it's all fun. We unfortunately had a big injury this past week, but luckily our little Katie will be alright! I have one week left and while I am really pumped, I am reallllly going to miss these kids. I have been so fortunate and blessed to have this job and it is going to be sad when I have to say goodbye. It's also hard to know that these kids probably won't remember me after a certain amount of time. But I hope that I've had some sort of effect on them, whether they remember or not :) Aww playcamp.
I've been packing a lot this weekend. My dining room is covered with all of my crap and while the pile is growing and growing, I am not done yet! I hope that packing now will prevent me from becoming stressed out later this week, even though I know the minor freaking out is inevitable. It's so weird to think about how I felt a year ago about leaving for school...scared, excited, nervous, uncomfortable but accepting, ready for something new. And now I feel extremely excited and anxious and just a little bit strange just because I've grown so accustomed to this summer routine and now it's all going to be different...but that's definitely good. It's also really crazy that I am moving in on the 18th and yet classes don't start until September 1st. Not that I'm complaining...I am not quite ready for the studying and homeworking and what not yet. Because I am a band officer this year, I am moving in early (two days before band camp) so I'll be able to get settled in and ready for my SIXTH year of marching....ahhh. That's kind of ridiculous hahahaha. It's things like band camp/marching band that I know are really awesome and fun, but I have to take a deep breath beforehand because I know how much work, time, and effort it takes. But it's so great.
You know, overall, I'm pretty pleased with this summer. It's weird for me to admit that, since I didn't do all that much, but I'm okay with that. I had fun for the most part and I did everything right with jobs and making money and also spending time with Aaron. I do wish I spent more time with friends, but I've had fun and it's not quite over yet :) I'm going to do my best to make the most of this week and enjoy it. I hope I'll be able to write an update soon once I get back to school...cross my fingers. I regret not making the time last year, but it's so damn hard! Let's see how it goes this year!
