Most likely not a "see you later".
Tomorrow, I will be driving away from my home of 13 years for the last time.
I'm in my bed, my room nearly empty.... the rest of our house an admitted mess.
Not sure what to think, but maybe it's best not to. Yeah, it kind of sucks, but my new sister taught me a delicious phrase that turns a normally apathetic or frustrated phrase into one of hope (cliché, I know). She says, "Whatever - it'll be awesome".
Quite honestly, it's usually true. Maybe this is a little bit hippy of me, but if I just let go and think it'll be good.... maybe it'll be good.
Okay, so even I can only take so much sentimentality.
Awesome things that have happened because I'm moving:
oreo milkshakes
unearthing all of our childhood toys OH MY GOD SO MANY 101 DALMATIONS AND STARWARS TOYS YEAAAAAAAAAH
realizing that home actually is NOT where you keep most of your underwear
how great that I have this opportunity to shed a layer of stuff, put myself back together in a new place with my parents, and give a new family a place to grow. I mean, moving that china cabinet really SUCKED, but I think my bed frame will go relatively easily (thank you, IKEA!).
and even if it doesn't.....
whatever - it'll be awesome
this is the pile of crap to get rid of....this round at least
i noticed this summer that I hadn't had any orange juice since I was in the UK. if you know me, you know that's really atypical. I haven't really been drinking it, even when it's available... but I craved it today! It seems that I'm back to being me, haha.
side note: if you haven't listened to "The North" (the new album by Stars), go do that.
you won't regret it.
