The last two weeks have been a crazy ride. After I got back from Canada my life seemed to just take off in all directions. From 21st birthday parties to packing everything up to move into an apartment, to practicing for the freshmen orientation's diversity skit I haven't had the chance to stop and catch my breath until now. Classes start tomorrow and I already feel like I'm in my own little bubble.
Thinking back on the past two weeks certain moments that have taught me things about myself.
-I realized that jumping on a bed is so stress relieving for me. I just can't help but have fun and laugh while doing it! I know that may seem so silly but its one thing that will always make me happy!
- When it comes down to routines and being organization- I need it as a foundation. I couldn't stand to have my apartment in shambles the first few days. I wanted everything in its place so that I could just go on with my life and relax.
- One thing the cable guy taught me- chocolate retrievers are not a good kind of dog to get. When he told me that I was so disappointed! Apparently they have some mental problems because of the way they've been bred. (Aka family members with family members). Crazy fact to hear from your cable guy- I know!
- After hours of practice and 9 skits later I realized that I can push my nerves down inside of me and effectively play a role in a skit.
- Lastly, I have to say I'm really proud of the way my discussion groups went after the skit. Knowing that I was able to set an environment for a group to discuss their feelings on some uncomfortable issues reassures me that I can be a counselor in the future.
I'm looking forward to taking my time this school year. I want senior year to feel like it lasts a while with lots of fun times!
