36 Hours & Climbing…

July 29th, 2003

Wow. Last night was the first time in forever I've pulled off an allnighter on something. I'm serious! I did NOT sleep at all last night...I was up working on this gosh-darndit website...lol. :) But hey, its worth it to me. Everything is working awesomely, I just have to finish the content pages. I actually tried going to sleep sometime after 6am when I heard my parents get up, but I guess my eyes were so used to being forced to stay awake that they wouldn't close. So I got up and went out of my "room" (the den, hehe) to the surprised looks of both my parents. I'm not a morning person. Ask anyone....lol. :)

I was thinking today about how tomorrow, as in Wednesday, will be the second to last full day I'm going to get to spend with my family, or at least with my mom and sisters, for a long long time. :( I keep pressing it down into the back of my mind so I won't think about it, but its going to happen sooner or later. Even though it will be an adventure to totally be living on my own (not forgetting my lovely roomie Stina) and I'm super excited about that, I know that this is gonna be tough. I've never had to be away from my entire family for more than a few weeks. And I guess its weird just because we've moved all around the globe with the military and you'd think I would just be able to shrug something like moving again off, right?

Well, the thing is, I've always had my family there with me when I moved to a new place...even when it was so hard because I didn't know anyone I always knew I could come home to my fam and they could crack me up and make me feel better...not saying that I won't know anyone at UCF or have any type of "family" to be with, but I think most people would get what I mean. I consider myself extremely lucky to be going to school with quite a few of my old highschool friends, including rooming with someone I've known almost two years from my church, and knowing that when I can't go home for Thanksgiving I actually have at least two families who have told me they want me to have dinner with them on that day.

So yes. I am very lucky. I'm still gonna miss them...gonna miss Lisa's freaky hilarious outbursts and impersonations, Amy's tantrums and overall weirdness, Dad's witty sense of humor and even my mom's lameness. Oh gosh...I think I'm going to cry...whoa...I never cry. Anyone who knows me knows that I don't cry easily...yikes...

Ok, I'm good. *Sigh*....well, I better get goin to sleep before I get any more delirious, hehe. :) Nite all.
