It’s getting a little more real, but I still can’t believe I’m leaving this place soon. It’s been my home for three and a half years. I’ve learned where all the eating places are and what back roads and short cuts to take to avoid traffic. I know the ins and outs of this place, and I realized on my drive back this afternoon that I will no longer use my Bryan College Station knowledge. Weird.
In less than two weeks, I will be back home in HEB. The ins and outs I learned all growing up will go back into effect. It will be back to a life of taking the freeway every time I want to go anywhere, having my coffee made for me in the mornings, and home cooked free meals each night. It’s bittersweet.
I’m closing one chapter, semi-re-opening another, and about to start a whole new book come June. I feel like I’m at this huge crossroads and have mixed feelings. The biggest emotion is excitement and eagerness to get out of this long distance relationship business. But I am feeling slight nostalgia for the good ol’ college years, as well as apprehensive about developing a dependence on my family once again – only to be jolted back into independence in June. Phew. I’m just all kinds of jumbled up.
6 months, 5 days, 19 hours
P.S. My mom and I went to a couple of florists this weekend. I think I found flowers I like! More details and possibly a sneak peek to come!
