In A Coon's Age
I guess I have fallen off the blogging map for quite some time and I haven't posted "in a coon's age", which probably means a long time, but I don't see how it could since there are tons of racoon carcuses on the highway. Anyway, I guess it's time to talk about something.
I can't believe it's almost time to return to Edinboro. I've discovered that I am struggling with one main issue- the issue of having a home in two different places. Guess you could say that I'm not the type who will grow up and have a winter cabin or a summer camp alongside a home. Home is where the heart is, but's it's difficult when it's torn.
I already have most of my priorites in line, organized, and ready to go. Call me a dork, but I have my master list already comprised and have bought all the "back-to-school" items. (Hey, my coupons expired at the end of this month, I had to get around to it!) It's tough thinking about the excitement of going back and then thinking of how much I enjoy home life and not having to share a bathroom with 20 some other girls. (On the other hand, I have to share the bathroom at home with one older brother, and that is bad enough or even worse.)
My mentor from school put it best when she said "It's hard to establish two homes. The best thing to do is to enjoy one while you have it." I couldn't really have said it better myself. Infact, I should have thought of it myself. Instead of daydreaming about one, just be content when I am. Sounds good to me.
Hopefully I can build my funds through college with an on-campus job. Sure, Shop N' Save isn't the hottest thing this side of the equator, but it pays the bills and such. This past Spring I couldn't wait to make some cash because I was sick and tired of being a poor boy. (No, just a poor kid, not the sandwich for those of you who know what a poor boy is.) (Do a lot of people know that?)
Thanks to my terrific job of checking out people's food and wiping away the grim and goop of a grocery store, I must cut this short because I've been called in for work! Toodles!
