Just like that Life is in Fast forward.

ITs been awhile and theres not necessarily a deeper meaning to this blog post..but whatever. maybe the few people who read this need a break from my intellectual and thought-provoking blog entries!!! haha just kidding.

Its been a pretty crazy summer. I feel quite accomplished...I have almost painted all the rooms of Julia's basement this summer. or at least helped. I spent several awesome days (and nights) in Athens, and I can't wait to go back. I've had more fun in Metro Atlanta this summer than I have in any other summer i can remember. I've almost taken an entire online class and forced myself to be disciplined enough to finish it. and I voted in Georgia's primary, only the second time I've ever voted. cool.

and now as of yesterday, I have been asked to be an RA in Russell Hall. Now I had applied and been wait listed what feels like a long time ago. but I get a call and now and a lot of what I was expecting for this year has changed. I won't be in ECV like I planned, but thats ok. I was going to live in a new dorm and be really close to Ramsey and ECV dining hall, but I think its worth the tradeoff to get paid AND have my own room.

Unfortunately i just missed the parking pass distribution. I have to wait for the next round. that sucks. But im #4 on the waitlist for the Russell Deck so no worries!

I am excited to be an RA now. Its going to be an interesting experience for me. I get to arrange my room completely how I want it..and I get two closets! thank God. I really needed the space. I have a picture in my head of an ideal room and I can't wait to put it in place.

The biggest downside of being an RA is that I wont be able to vacation with my family, who had planned on leaving for Florida on July 31. I have to move in August 1. But its a sacrifice I'm willing to make, because I get free housing and I get paid for food. There really isn't a better deal.

So yes, I will be back in Russell Hall. Which is perfectly fine, especially since I will now have wifi. hopefully the internet will be a tad faster. that would always be nice haha.


And just like that I have less than 2 weeks left in summer. Oh well...I gotta get back to (Hogwarts!) Athens...haha.
