Monday Morning

It is Monday morning and I am sitting here in my office all alone contemplating the sadness of what has become of my current situation. I miss my co-worker, Tyniece. I miss the fun atmosphere. I miss the drive in the air. Although, it is coming to an end, and I have other opportunities being placed before me, I can't help but be a little sad.

All weekend I have been feeling like it is the end of my life. A lot of circumstances have or already ended. For example, I was released from my calling, my housing contract is up, I am leaving my best friend, I will no longer have a job, my car is paid for as of this month, my Gold's Gym membership is up, my friend's are moving out of the ward, my computer broke, and many other events are over. I have been packing my stuff in boxes all weekend getting ready to move while thinking about my current state.

BUT THINGS ARE LOOKING UP! I signed a lease with my good friend, Becca Bates, for a really cute 2 bedroom apartment in Midvale. It has a wood burning fireplace, a great student ward, and I get the master bedroom! She gets the garage. I bought a laptop and am anxiously awaiting it's arrival to my front door. My step-dad added me to his health insurance since I am only 23, a full time student, and his favorite step-daughter. My parents have both offered to help me out with tuition, books, and some of my living expenses until I can get a job. I signed up for a couple really cool classes that I am excited about. I might buy a kingsize bed for my new apartment mainly because I want friends and family to visit a lot. I cleaned out my closet and a few other random places and have 2 1/2 large boxes ready for the DI. I got rid of more stuff that I had since sophomore year in high school. Becca and I picked out the ward we will be attending. It's super fun with lots of attractive men. Last but not least, I am starting over with a clean slate. I am changing everything about my atmosphere and though I am a little frightened, I am so excited!

It is going to be FANTASTIC!
