Alex's Blog
3 Down, 1 to Go!
It's so hard to believe that school is mere weeks away. It seems like a few days ago when I made my first blog entry thinking that the summer had so much potential. In all honesty, I don't think I did half of the things I would have liked- so these few weeks are going to be packed!
I think there is always a rush to fit in everything I wanted to do in the summer as soon as I realize that it's almost over. Next week I am hoping to get to New York- a quick last minute trip but I feel like it could make my summer feel a little more worthwhile. Not that it hasn't been so far, I've gotten invaluable experience with my internship this year. But other than that, vacation time has been short.
I think that while I'm getting older (and accruing more responsibilities) I tend to gravitate to home where I can fall back into my high school leisure-mode. While I was in high school, I completely took my freedom for granted. I didn't really have stresses in my life. Now I'm looking at insurance packages because I'll be on my own in some odd 268 days if I'm doing my math correctly. Scary thought. This year I'm really going to have to jam-pack everything in. Wish me luck!
