I think in short paragraphs.


Why is it that whenever there is work to be done, I find the need to reflect and think?

So what is it now, 16 days until graduation and until we're free...at last? I'll be moving all my stuff back home and living with my parents, eating their food, using their electricity. Some people would call this arrangement one step back, but I don't know--I think it's pretty good for me.

I get my own room that I plan on redecorating. Cleaning is always exciting. I'll have a nice backyard in which I can throw garden parties. I can frequent the fridge as many times as I like without judgment, wear my 4th grade P.E. shorts without fear, and reschedule my sleeping patterns to match my parents'! YAY. Yeah, I don't know in which direction this post is going either. I guess that's what it is--mixed emotions.

Anyways, more to come on my reflections of a graduating senior. In the meantime, I have 16 days of work to finish (but I'll probably be back before then).

Goodbyes and reunions to come.

Life is such a fragile thing. It's a shame that it takes someone gone to remember to refocus myself on the things that matter. Death is not all that scary to me anymore because I know where we end up, however it doesn't make it any less painful.

Ow.
