So tonight is the last night I will be sleeping in my own bedroom, with my wonderfully large queen-sized bed, and my deep spacious closet, and my bookshelf with two rows of books on every shelf. And it still hasn't sunk in yet.
I keep having to say goodbye, but I don't think it's really hit me yet that I'm leaving, that I won't be able to call WonderBoy and ask for rides, that Chero won't be five minutes around the corner, that Maria and Pinta and I can't spontaneously go shopping, that Mito will never sit behind me in another math class (I never have to take another!!!), that I won't be running in to Mateo in between classes. If I'm lucky, I'll run in to all of my friends between semesters.
Anyway...
I'm excited. I want a clean slate, to start fresh. I want to refocus my life, to have purpose and to know I'm right where I'm meant to be. I have high ideals and many goals for this new and grand adventure! I'll keep you posted on the results.
And, funny thing...
I am often kidded by my friends for wearing my sister's clothes. We borrow each other's clothes all the time, and I'm constantly getting compliments on blouses that don't belong to me. But by tomorrow, her wardrobe will no longer be available for ransacking. So I made an effort this summer to buy some of my own clothes, and have been very careful to wear only my own, especially this past week.
Well, I wasn't paying attention, and packed all my clothes, and therefore have nothing to sleep in. So, for tonight at least, I'm borrowing her clothes one last time. :)
Well I'm only 4 hours away now. :) And if I speed... ;) Hahaha
