Back Home: Day 1

The last few days have been hectic since school has ended. For a day or two I simply basked in the sheer pleasure of not being constantly stressed out, before I had to begin the transition back home. I'll be moving tomorrow and Tuesday, but getting all my crap from school to home is only one part of the process. It's back to a whole new life of living with the family, having no privacy and no space, and hanging out with friends much different than those I go to school with. Sometimes it feels as though I lead two separate lives--one during the school year and one at home--and for a few days in between it always feels slightly awkward as I switch one off, and the other on. I can't say which I like better, for there are benefits and drawbacks to each, but the honest truth is I'm looking forward to what comes after. When I'll become a woman who is a blend of both, and yet something different altogether. I'm getting close. For the first time, the end is drawing near.

Yesterday I came home for about five minutes before I had to leave for Beth's bachelorette party in Grand Blanc. She and Matt have been dating for five years, and after being engaged for two and a half of those years, they are finally getting married next weekend! :D I'm very happy for them, and I get to be Beth's Maid of Honor!!! :D :D We had fun and played lots of embarrassing games, and then went to see "What Happens In Vegas." After that I came home and talked to Chris until 3:30 am. O.o

This morning I had to try to squeeze the first third of my crap back into my bedroom. Oy.

Tomorrow I have to call my Kroger pharmacist Dan to set up my summer internship schedule. I'm going to beg and plead for something earlier than 11-7. Wish me luck. I also have to set up my hair appointment for the wedding, and then drive back to Big Rapids to get the second third of my crap.

I've only been back in Genesee County for about 24 hours, and I'm already tired of the potholes. O.O
