While I said I would give a nice, big update during my break, here I am sitting in the Charlotte airport waiting to catch my flight to Boston – whoops! I guess I enjoyed myself too much at home. It was nice to just be Annie for a week and only do a few emails and paperwork here and there.

There’s something about home, I’m finding. In high school, I was the misunderstood 16 year old that wished away her high school days; that was ready to conquer the big world out there. Now, I look forward to going back. Could I stay there forever? Well, no. But it’s nice to be around the people I know and love and in a familiar zone. The simplicity and quiet was most needed.
On that note, when I think about how long it’s been since I was 16 years old…it baffles me. SIX YEARS AGO. Where has the time gone? I find myself lately being obsessed with time and how crazily fast it moves. I think about how much I’ve changed in those six year; how many relationships I’ve gained and how many I’ve lost; wondering if some of those relationships are gone for good – that’s a tough one too. The way I’m learning to see it is that if some people are meant to be in my life then they will be. It has to be as simple as that, right? I know I’m a good person that always strives to make good decisions, I don’t try to do harm or cause pain to others. I am proud of the way I have given to my relationships and so I choose to let it be. If those relationships are in fact over for good, at least I know I gave them my all. Otherwise, that would be the greater tragedy.

And another thing about time…what on earth am I going to do with all of the time I have left? I am enjoying my job and this experiencing SO unbelievably much. I have been to Ohio, Alabama, California, Nevada, Colorado and Indiana all in the span of 3 months. My job is a blessing and I am learning more about myself and others than I ever thought I would. But my mind is constantly looking forward – what’s next? I guess my long break in December is going to be a great time to figure that one out.

If you didn’t already know…I’m going to Boston today because I am going to the oldest university in the country and one of the most prestigious universities in the world…
HARVARD!!!
