Summer?

So it just sort of hit me last night and today that I'm going to be far, far away for the next almost six weeks. Woah. I was telling my mom tonight that its strange having come home a few days ago and entered into "summer mode" (a.k.a. catching up with everyone from back home and just relaxing all the time) and then realizing that in two days I'll be snapped out of it and back in the classroom. Not very conventional.

But then again, this summer doesn't promise to be conventional anyways. Friends will be all around the world at different times in Hawaii, Africa, Vermont, etc. and others will have legit jobs taking up most of their time. Sure there will be the concerts, the boating, the hang outs, but I feel like it's going to be very disjointed overall. After also being slapped in the face a few days ago with the realization that I'm halfway done with college, I'm beginning to think thats how things are going to be in the future. Yikes!

Regardless, summer is summer I guess. Even if its 39 degrees out like it is right now. Time to take a deep breath, catch up with everyone as much as I'll be able to, and realize that two more years of college isn't that bad after all.

Two contemplative blog posts in a row. Now that's a change! Have no fear, though. I'm sure I'll be back to politics in no time.
