Yesterday held a couple of firsts for me, first day of school and first day at a new job. I love firsts because it is a time you get to start new. You can forget everything that has happened last year and move on, you can grow in a new place and know that you are going to have new experiences. You can learn from the mistakes you have made and move on. With this new school year I have set many new goals that I know I can achieve if I put my mind to it. This new job is a place that I can grow and that is exactly what I would like to do. I have a lot of things coming up in my life that will require decisions that I know will change the course of my life. The greatest part about college is that you are there to make your own decisions and learn and grow from them. I am finding more and more about myself every single day. I got to go on an awesome vacation with my sister Kristy and her family. It was so great being able to spend time with them and grow closer to my nieces. There were moments where I wasn't sure if I would ever stop laughing. Definitely a trip to remember. We got to go to Disneyland and it makes all the lines worth it to see a kid meet one of her favorite characters. It would be like any of us going and meeting a celebrity. Seriously one of the coolest things ever.
Even I was excited as I turned the corner and there stood Minnie and Mickey and Donald and Daisy. Even though I know it is just people in costumes for a split second I had forgotten and the nostalgia of childhood came flushing back to me. My niece Eliza loved these matching glasses that we had it was fun to watch her get such a kick out of them. Definitely one of the best trips I have ever been on, I don't think I will be able to ever thank Chris and Kristy enough for letting me join them.
So along with a new school year comes along the challenge/excitement of new roommates. I will admit that I was nervous when I heard that we would be getting 3 new roommates and we only really knew one of them. But yet again I got lucky and so far my roommates have been phenomenal. It is an interesting group of people and I think it will balance out pretty well. We went to a movie in the park last night for FHE and I think it was the first time all 6 of my roommates were at an FHE (thanks to my new job I was able to go.)
It was a night of adventure and getting to know each other. I have a feeling this is going to be a really good year!
