Transitions

Freshman year: done.

Hold on while I go run around the lake a couple times in utter, joyous exhilaration. (Side note: it took me three tries to spell exhilaration correctly. *sigh* Apparently four days without school and I'm already losing knowledge). 

It strikes me how important transitions can be in certain periods of our lives. When a gradual transition isn't possible, the result is either high stress or a better result because I didn't have time to worry. So, how am I transitioning into summer?

By working, using up my hours in the conservatory office. I had three days at home before I was back at school, haha. It would have been nice to be at home this week, but I'm staying with one of the ladies from the office. She and her husband have a beautiful house beside a marvelous lake. To top it off, her husband loves to cook! I had a cornish hen, brown rice, and corn on the cob for dinner. Right now, I'm watching a cake show on TLC. I feel like I'm already on vacation.

The sad thing is that I'll only have one day at home before we're on the road again. Friday I work in the office, Friday night I work at a dress rehearsal for a dance concert, then I drive home for some sleep. Saturday morning my whole family leaves at 7:20 a.m. to go pack meals at church. After that we leave for the beach.

Hopefully sometime this summer I'll just...relax.

But why would I want that? Hahahahahaha.

Happy summer!
