Day 64.
Yes, I skipped a day though not on purpose. Yesterday morning after two hours of not very restful sleep I began my day at 5am. A day in which several oglies that I know and adore graduated. It was relatively sad and exciting and an overall long day. Thomas was kind enough to help me pack and move things out to my car. I left campus around noonish or maybe it was closer to one. anyways, I left school as soon as I could so I could talk to Alex before going home for the summer. We met at some random McDonnell's and chatted for I think two hours. Among the many things I told him was that I am so grateful he is in my life. I honestly do not know who I would be if he hadn't been in my life. According to him I have changed a lot in the past year and the change is both good and bad. He says I have started to put wants and needs in front of others and have stopped making such a huge effort to protect people. I think he was saying that was slightly a negative change, but I am not quite so sure of that though I will be double checking myself for selfishness and trying not to be. He pointed out at some of my actions and told me that old Krista wouldn't have done that, but we both agreed I have been making decisions that are as right as their situations will allow. Unpacking into my room today was weird. I have not come back to a house full of traditions and years' worth of memories. I have already begun to move into a house that has never been mine. The closest I felt like home in it was over spring break, but I had oglies there with me so I'm guessing they brought the sense of home from Oglethorpe. My room is slowly becoming mine though. I have an actual bookshelf for the first time in years and my books now have a proper, more respectable home than the boxes and odd stacks they have been in for as long as I can remember. i found out today that the job I had been looking forward to and was afraid of becoming overwhelmed by is only going to be 4hrs a day/five days a week. That is nowhere near the practical running of the business that I was told to expect. I shouldn't have let my hopes up because I know my lovely mother always exaggerates. Oh well. Speaking of which--happy mothers day, I love you bunches!

I don't know this old Krista but I think the new one is lovely! Hour hours actually sounds like a plus. That is a great amount of time left in your day to just be free and enjoy the summer.
