It's Electric, I Can't Forget It

I love summer in Bellingham! Even though I don't have a job right now, I'm not too scared that I'll have to move back home. If I plan it right I'll be just fine financially. I think. I hope.

It's weird how certain peoples' actions effect you. I try to be nice around people but sometimes I just can't physically get myself to do it. It's weird! It's like I know they don't deserve it so I can't do it and then I come off as being a bitch. Oh well, c'est la vie.

I miss speaking French. Looks like I'm going to have to buckle down and take a refresher course in the fall. I can't believe I'm done with the minor already. I am supposed to graduate in a year!! It's crazy. And then what am I supposed to do? Spend the rest of my life looking for jobs. I feel like that's all I've been doing lately. I hope the law firm I applied to calls me back for an interview. That'd be sweet.

Baseball game with the girls tonight. I'm very excited! Boys in tight pants, what else could be better on a Monday night?

But Will You Still Respect Me If You Get It?

Another school year has finished. I can't believe next year I'll be graduating from college. It honestly feels that I was just moving into the dorms on my 19th birthday, embarking on something I wasn't sure I wanted. Now I know I want this, but it wasn't until this year that I realized it. I'm glad I didn't give up and take the easy way out. I learned a lot this year. More than I thought I would. And I'm not talking about what I learned in my classes, college has made me experience real life in ways I never thought it would or could. I learned how to get over the person whom you thought was the love of your life, that true happiness is found within yourself, that there is a roommate out there that you can get along with 100% of the time, that being 21 is amazing and expensive, how to be patient with people, how to forgive, how to get hurt and jump right back, how to get a free drink, but most importantly I've learned that in order for me to keep my stress to a minimum, I just need to take my life one day at a time. That seems kind of obvious to some people but I don't think you learn that until you actually have to experience it.

I love the people I have met this year and without them, this year wouldn't have been the best so far.
