Last Week at ONU

            As I wrap up this week, I am so so so so SO excited to leave. But that’s obvious, I’ve been talking about leaving for summer for the past four weeks. Anyway, to share my last week here at ONU for my sophomore year, I’ll have bring you all back about a week. Last Thursday, my mom came down to Ada and took my boyfriend and I out to dinner. It was amazing to see my mom because I haven’t seen her since I went home for my birthday, which was a little over a month ago. That was also the last time, and only time actually, her and my boyfriend saw each other. So, dinner was really nice to catch up on, especially considering on my birthday there was a bunch of people out with us, so it wasn’t the easiest to converse with one another.

This week's flowers!

            The rest of the week has been spent preparing to leave. Not so much ‘packing’ as in preparing, I still have not even begun starting that process. More of a mental preparation. Actually no, I’ve literally done nothing this past week except think about summer and being tan. Wow…not much of a blog post. After this blog, I will officially have all of my assignments from spring semester done. And again, I am not surprised if I don’t start packing until Monday next week…I leave Wednesday. Still, seems totally doable.

            I will miss my roommate and boyfriend over summer though. My friends and I go up to the lake one weekend, so that is something to look forward to and also being able to have everyone back together as two of our friends no longer attend Northern. Anyway, this blog was mostly just me rambling on but, happy summer everyone! See you all in the fall!

    I agree that I am very excited to leave. I also won't actually pack until I have to. It's definitely hard not to think about summer these last couple weeks, each day just seems longer and it's hard to stay in the moment. Happy Summer for you though!

    I am excited to leave, but also a little sad. Don't get me wrong, I am SO happy to be done with schoolwork for the summer, but I am sad to leave my friends behind. I live 8 hours away so I know I won't get to see them over the summer which is sad. I can't wait to be in civilization though. I come from living near so many cities that living in this tiny village sometimes drives me crazy. I know summer will fly by though so I will just try to soak it all in while I can!

August: Moves, Accidents and Vacations!

 As my first blog back, I thought I would walk you through my very hectic last month of summer. On Aug. 2, my mom told me she was moving in 30 days. She was very excited about it, and I also thought it would be fun. However, I quickly realized that I was leaving for Florida on Aug. 13 and moving back to school almost immediately after returning. That meant I had about a week and a half to go through everything I owned. It’s also important to note that I am not moving back home after I graduate in May — I’m moving to Florida. So it wasn’t as simple as packing and moving my things. It was a cleanout of everything I owned. I don’t know how I managed to get it done, but by the time I left for Florida everything of mine was already pitched or packed. I then, thankfully, went on to have the most relaxing vacation. My boyfriend and I are long distance — he lives in Florida — so we decided to have a little getaway before we both begin our last years of school. Naples Pier, FL We went t...

Move-Out Stress

              As the semester winds down, I can't help but feel a sense of relief washing over me. I've nearly completed all of my major assignments for the semester, and it's like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. The last few weeks have been a whirlwind of endless papers, presentations, and projects, but I know it won’t be long before I won’t have to think about school anymore – or for a few months at least. However, just as the stresses of school have left my mind, I find myself with a new worry. I have absolutely no idea how I am going to get all of my stuff home. As I look around my room, I constantly think to myself, “This is not going to all fit in my car.” I am more worried about the bigger things, such as my fridge, my chair, and my TV. But, luckily, my brother lives in Ada so I am hoping I can just leave those things at his house until the weekend following move-out, since my family will be here for his graduation. Even b...
