My mom is a psychological nurse, and she often describes the symptoms of her emotionally unstable patients, and though I am certainly not that bad, sometimes I wonder if she's considered injecting me with mood stabilizers.
Of course, I am dramatizing my emotional self; I am a girl, after all, which means that I am completely justified feeling high off life one minute, and hate the world.
Today, I found out I got the job I've been freaking out about for my last few blogs. This summer, I will be one of the many Orientation Leaders for UMass Lowell, a job that I know is going to be emotional, stressful, and at times, miserable. I know that when its 100 degrees out and I am eating nasty Aramark food for dinner yet again, I'll momentarily reconsider my life choices. But I also know that it will be a really rewarding, unforgettable experience, and honestly I am ready for the challenge. And perhaps the best part? My best friend is going to be along for the ride with me, which makes me that much more excited for summer.
And because summer is still a few months away, I've got so much to look forward to, now. The Connector hockey game Friday night. (My dad, grandfather, uncles and brother are all coming up for the game). Then the last hockey game Saturday night, followed by an open skate with the hockey team. Next week, my birthday dinner/bar outing. Following that is spring break; for that week, I will indulge on sleep and family and catching up with friends. I'm also going to see Motley Crue (!), a Queen tribute band and meeting the guitarist of Black Flag (Greg Ginn) on my birthday. Not to mention I can (hopefully!) get the outline done for my new tattoo once I get back from break. In April, I'm going to see my Red Sox with my good friend and then am going to New York with my Connector crew. Before I know it, Spring Carnival will be here, and the WUML vs. Connector kickball, and then finals, and SUMMER!
Needless to say, I am thankful for lots of things in my life right now.
