I can smell it! Spring is coming. Although it is only 20 degrees here right now, I still know that spring is on its way. I'm so ready to take my winter coat home and leave it there. I don't want to keep wearing that awful thing anymore. So I'm thinking that if I just leave it there, the weather will stay nice. I was very pleased with this winter, we had a few really good snows and I got to go sledding successfully without tearing any ligaments this year. So I consider that progress.
So I feel like lately I've been living on countless countdowns and really not in the moment. Which might not be the best thing. I feel like I could be missing out on stuff that is going on right now because I'm only thinking about whatever is next. So I've been trying to focus on what is happening today and making it all count. *And whenever I think of that I always think of the part in Titanic when Jack hands Rose the note after dinner, "Make it count. Meet me at the clock."*
But even though I am living for today, here are a list of everything else that I can't wait for...
1: Friday! Start of Spring Break and I get to go home. My brother is coming to Lawrence to pick me up which should be really fun because we don't get to hang out that much even when I am home because he is always off getting himself into shenanigans. And also on Friday I get to see other amazing people. LIZ, hopefully Steph and Jess and Swish.
2. Next Wedneday: I get to hopefully go to Springfield and see China with her mom. I'm really excited cause she has already come to see me twice and I haven't been there once so it will be really cool.
3. End of school: Cause then I can come home for more than just a few weeks and get a job (hopefully at WOF) and take a break from thinking so much. And just be with my friends.
4. May in Colorado: My cousin is graduating and we are going to the party. I'm pumped cause I haven't seen my family in a year and I want to see my new baby cousins.
5. RAGBRAI: I missed it last year and I'm sooooo ready to get back there. And it will be soo much better this year cause I have people my age going lol. More specifically Liz and hopefully Emma. So it will be awesome.
And then I don't want to think about what happens after the end of July. I hope this summer doesn't go too fast. And hopefully if I go just one day at a time, it will.
I'm sitting in our lounge area in the union and there is this guy sleeping on the chair next to me and I'm laughing. But then I realize that I did the exact same thing last week. So maybe I should just hush lol.
Happy Spring Everyone :)
