Though it seemed to have taken years for this summer to go by, in retrospect, it seems to have slipped right out of my little fingers. I've finished up 6 more credits, gone to hawaii for a week, changed jobs, and school starts up again in 2 1/2 weeks? wait, that seems impossible, but it's true!
Perhaps this makes me a bit of a geek, but so be it: now that my history class is over, i miss it. I don't miss the super long papers, but i miss my teacher, and all the stuff i was learning. I am also very excited to have classes start again. I am so ready for it! I'm not even nervous about swinging the 5 classes and 25 hours of work a week, i know i will rock it...In fact, after seeing a target ad for school supplies , i became so excited thinking about it, i smacked the table and called my dad to tell him how i couldn't wait for class to start. He just laughed...i bet he never thought he'd live to hear that! by the way, when i told my mom i had bought all my school supplies, she asked if i got my "64 piece box of crayons yet...the kind with the sharpener on the back? you got that right?"
I have officially left grooveground too, my last day was yesterday which felt strange. Not because i was leaving, as i've had 3 months to get used to the idea. But it just felt so arbitrary to be leaving. I know i'll be back to get coffee, just on the other side of the counter. However, when i got up this morning, i found myself not wanting to go there. Not so much because i didnt have to, but because i feel like i need some space. I feel kinda like when you break up with someone, you really don't want to bump into them on the street for at least a few weeks. Its a weird feeling to have about a job really... Though something nice, is how less stressful my life is. However, i didn't even realize i had this stress at the time. I think i just felt like i had to be tethered to the shop in a certain way. Like i had to keep my phone on in case something happened etc... I think it's just the very small amount of responsibility i have at the bakery is a bit of a shock. a good shock. Its nice to be told what to do and leave.
I know that this time now, where i have lots of free time will all come to a screaching hault soon enough, so i am going down the shore as much as possible over the next few weeks, and not feeling guilty about just hanging around, occaissionally working.
Also, i am super committing myself to my yoga practice. I have been taking the harder classes and i love it! it feels so good, in my muscles, bones, everything just feels so good. I bought myself a new yoga mat as a present for being so commited to it. It will be an important key to keeping myself from getting stressed over the fall semester.
