Success!



It has been a little while since I've posted here, mainly because I have been running around and taking care of all sorts of shiz for my big move.
I drove to PA with (my traveling buddy) Rachel and found my perfect apartment. Train right across the street, coffee shop a couple doors down, four miles away from school, etc. etc. I visited Villanova and the nursing school too! I'm moving THIS THURSDAY. I'm excited and nervous. I am really looking forward to living near Amy (two hours!) and discovering all sorts of restaurants, stores, cafes, etc. in my area.
I will post again once I am officially in PA and settled.
YAY!!!!

Here we go!

I've officially completed my FAFSA and have filled out some of the necessary forms for financial aid through Villanova University. I'm finally at the point where I can really start applying for scholarships, too! I will be driving from Michigan to PA the end of March to find an apartment. It will be an interesting nine+ hour drive. After I've found my amazing wonderful perfect (keep dreaming... right?) apartment, I'm going to go visit my sister who only lives an hour and forty five minutes from my school (not considering traffic). So close, right?
I'm almost out of my funk of my weird feelings. Sometimes it creeps back up, but I'm fighting any wandering thoughts. I think being pulled out of your comfortable world into a totally new existence isn't easy to deal with in general. But, at the same time, I think that I really won't have time to be all boohoo once I move for nursing school because shit, that stuff is going to be demanding! I want to get all my feelings of sadness out and deal with what I can and just move on. Because, well, I am really excited to move. I want to meet interesting people and have a place to call my own.
My aunt and uncle from New York are in town. Last night they came over for tea, wine, and dessert. It was pleasant. Nothing too exciting has been going on here. It's been windy lately. I'm still working out a ton and am pleased with the results I have been seeing.
Ciao.

By the way- Happy Birthday Dedulya. I miss you every day. I won't be able to ever fill the void for Babulya, but I'm damn near close.
