Life in a Box

So, I’m going to college.  Wait, what’s that you said? Yeah, I’M GOING TO COLLEGE.  TOMORROW.   Tomorrow, everything changes…

Yeah, so I’ve been packing for college, and I’m realizing how hard it is to pack my whole life into a box, well, several boxes, but still.  I’m deciding what to take with me, and what is getting left behind.  And who is getting left behind.  There are so many people I have to say good bye to, and it’s probably one of the hardest things I have to do.  I'm going to miss all my amazing friends, and my supportive family, and this town that I've grown to love.  With all of the packing and saying goodbye, I’ve barely had a moment to just, take it all in.  Everything is moving so fast and I feel like I barely have time to breathe.  And don’t get me wrong, I’m super excited to start college, but I’m also kinda scared.  I keep telling myself it’s going to be so much fun, and it will be, but I also know it’s going to be really hard.  And I’m going to tell you about all the fun times and the hard times and the awkward times, ‘cause let’s face it, we all know it’s going to happen. 

So here is where the journey really begins.  As soon as I get into the car and drive off tomorrow, there’s no turning back.  And like i learned in Arthur, when one door closes, another door opens.  So although my time at home may be ending, but my life is really just beginning.
