L’Été est là
Junior year has come and gone, and now it’s the start of summer. This summer will be a summer of firsts. My first summer spent in New York; my first internship; the first time a friend from home is coming to visit; my first Independence Day… I’m very eager to get started but there’s just the little inconvenience of moving dorms. After packing all of my things into boxes, I have come to the realization that I must stop hoarding. I didn’t think I would accumulate so much crap over just ONE semester, but it’s happened. And I can’t ease any of the load by donating or throwing things out because I seem to need everything. I have no idea how Alex and I will manage to cart everything down 4 blocks… Stay tuned for the aftermath.
In other news, the bf has graduated from NYU and though it hasn’t quite hit me yet, I’m certain that there will be a humungous abyss in my life next year. Having virtually lived together for the past 4 months, I’m going to have to get used to not doing his laundry, having his clothes in my closet, sleeping in the same bed every night of the week… But there must always be an end, and the boy must become a man now. LOL he’s gonna hate that.
Taking part in all the festivities of graduation this past week has given me a preview of how it will be next May. Judging from what happened, I am absolutely positive that I will be bawling like a baby through both the CAS and university-wide commencements.
On the up side, I envision a great year to come. I am determined to finish my undergraduate career with an eardrum-shattering explosion. Oh no, a mere bang is not enough my friends. With all that said, I am realistic about the melancholy and finality of the occasion. Friendships will again be hurled to different parts of the country/world, and the comfortable routines of college life will come to an abrupt end.
BUT! One must not dwell on the negatives at this moment, because so much awesomeness is yet to come.
Let summer begin!
