Mixed Up

I have a whole lot of mixed emotions right now. I’m excited for school to start, but dreading the work that always comes with it. I’m wanting all of my friends’ problems to work out and am optimistic about it, but at the same time, I’m worried they’ll get hurt.

Overall I’m loving life currently. I’m having a great cup of coffee with the blinds open to the sunshine, and listening to James Taylor radio. I have a good shopping list going for this weekend and I might even venture out into tax-free weekend crowds to buy some cheap school clothes – after all, I have also received wonderful coupons in the mail…. $15 off a $30 purchase!? I think so!

I only have 4 months until graduation, and 1 month until I get my aggie ring. I’m about to go apply for graduation after I finish this entry up. There is also only a month and a half left before Samantha’s wedding and officially 10 months or less left until Phillip and I’s wedding. So many things to look forward to and yet I feel a little anxious and nervous because the future is finally here.

I don’t want to rush through the last 4 months before graduation and need to enjoy these last 10 months of being engaged. That’s hard for me, but I know I’ll feel like something is missing if I don’t. I’ve been waiting to start living for so long, and it’s time I get out there and do it!
