Originally, I had the idea of making this blog to keep track of my friends who are now re-locating all across the US and beyond, and I had zero intentions of actually writing my own. Having other people reading my thoughts isn't exactly comforting, but I figured the theraputic benefits would outweigh my other concerns(Graduate school decisions and wedding planning stress me out to no end), and I always used to love writing before I left all of my nerdy hobbies behind in Middle School in an attempt to fit in.
That being said, this is my attempt to bring back my old self some more as I get ready to move to North Carolina with my soon to be husband! So I'm admitting it; I was/am a nerd. When I was younger, I was obsessed with bird watching and arts and crafts. I used to make some sweet cross stich projects back in the day. Once I got to High School, I decided I wanted to be a vet, until I dug deep down and realized I'm going to be myself no matter what anyone thinks, and changed my major to Wildlife Conservation (with full realization that I'll be living in a box for the rest of my life due to the low salary ranges) After graduating from UD, I have decided to apply for a Masters degree in marine science/coastal environmental management. I only applied to two schools. Stupid idea? yes. Talk about putting all of your eggs in one basket. Now I'm patiently waiting for the results from these schools, and I'll know hopefully by the end of February/early March. Luckily though, this is before my wedding in April, so I'll know whether or not to sulk or do the happy dance weeks in advance of down the aisle. Needless to say, my stress levels are high.
I'm actually on a diving dry spell right now. I feel like I'm drowning because I'm away from the water.... Ironic. There's something about being underwater and hearing nothing but your own breathing, and the clicking and snapping of fish as they pick algae off of the reef. Huge de-stresser. Hopefully Kurt and I will be able to go soon.... Shout out to Lisa.. I miss my dive buddy! Actually, I wish I was on some beach with hubby... hence the picture.
Agh back to work.
