I'm finding it hard to concentrate on the things that need to get done while all of this change swirls around me. Graduating college is a major transition and I was in denial for the weeks leading up to it.
I acted like it was no big deal so I wouldn't have to adjust to life after college. Realizing my best friends are a full six hour drive away is painful. The only cure for that is to schedule visits and reunions!
Lately, I have been making a point to let go of some of my Type A tendencies and enjoy every day for what it is without planning the next day. I think that has been working out in my favor! Very refreshing. However, the crazy list-maker inside of me is dying to get every little thing organized before I leave Rochester.
This will be my mantra when I start the packing process:
Organizing everything I have ever owned before I move seems like the most daunting task right now. I have to move out of my college apartment, back into my parent's house (for 7 weeks), and head "down south to the land of the pine." It feels strange calling it my "parent's house" but I guess I'm at that age now. Another thing I'll have to just get used to!
I have been doing more and more research on Nashville - restaurants, yoga studios, hiking/running trails, flea markets, etc. I can already feel the butterflies in my stomach.
For the first time in my life, I feel like I am in the driver's seat.
This is the kind of change I could get used to.
