| Life has been zooming past me lately. But it's finally happened! I'm Laura Helweg at last!!!
| | |
| I'm feeling a bit conflicted right now. I'm intensely excited and also sad at the same time. It's also as if I'm having a mixed manic episode, but of course none of my symptoms are nearly that extreme. Still it's a wierds combo.
First the happy. Always start everything with happy thoughts. Right Peter Pan?
1. Michael and I are getting the key to our house at 4:00 today and starting to move in tonight! Tomorrow we're are going to move in at least all the big stuff, but by the end of the weekend he should be pretty much living there! I'm so excited to have our own place (even if I can't stay there for another month). I get to arrange how everything is and decorate and truly make it OURS! 2. In 2 weeks I will be at home with my parents and kitty. And my Mom is throwing me a shower which means friends and presents. Yeah! There are a few really good friends that I miss down there, and if they want to bring me presents I will not object! Plus Michael is going with me so I don't even have to leave him! It's going to be so great!
Ok, now for the sadness. This morning I was reading the comics with my cereal (yum!) and in one of them the grandfather just had a stroke and the family realizes their everyday problems aren't so big. Well the end of my junior year in high school my grandma had a second stroke that left her in a coma for a couple weeks before she died. And it just really made me miss her. My dad's side of the family hasn't been the same since. None of my aunts really talk to us anymore because they got mad at my Dad over how he distributed my Grandma's money. Geez. I was reading the comics for goodness sakes!
So I'm feeling weird right now. i'm super anxious for it to be 4 so I can go to our house, but I'm feeling kind of sad and missing my Grandma too. And none of my roommates are around to give me a hug. They better watch out when they get home!

| It smelled like fall today. I am so excited!
Reasons I love fall:
1. It's so pretty. I love it when outside changes colors!
2. The weather is perfect. Anytime I can wear a hoodie and flip-flops at the same time I get excited.
3. It smells so nice (ok so i kinda already said that)
4. It means that before long
there will be a holiday every month. Fall break starts a wonderful fall
trend of not going to class!
5. Cool weather means tea. Ever
since England I have a renewed appreciation for tea. If only I could
find some gluten-free biscuits over here!
6. It means I'm getting married soon! That's 53 days to be exact!
7. Did I mention WEDDING?!!! | | |
| I really don't want to go to class! There are just so many more productive and fun things I could do with my afternoon! (Of course most of those aren't the same thing. Apparently I'm not drawn to the fun and productive.) Or I could just take a nap. My bed looks awfully snuggly over there. And my sleepy side is pretty persuasive. But of course I have to go to class so I can get out of school sometime in the near future! In the words of Winnie the Pooh, "Oh Bother!"
