How Far I've Come
Today I was looking through most of my blog entries from last summer and it was so weird.
Ha. Let me take a moment to meditate on how truly eloquent that sentence was. Continue.
Sarcasm aside, I really felt like I was reading entries from another person. Do know that feeling? Whether it's a page in a journal, a letter, even a facebook wallpost from a year ago--doesn't a part of you ask yourself "Who was that person?� Do you automatically think about how far you've come?
I just did. Last summer had plenty of ups and downs. I was stuck home sometimes bored out of mind, but somehow had enough enthusiasm for the future while excited about the little things that happened day to day. I was sooooo thrilled about starting my job as a Resident Advisor and preparing for training. I was so happy about my first concert and landing that job...
And the most rewarding entry I read today was about my schemes for next summer. One of the possibilities I talked about was becoming an Orientation Leader for Ohio State. At the time, it seemed like a lofty goal because it’s a very competitive process. But after accomplishing that goal, I feel so much pride and boost of confidence--like I can do ANYTHING!
Speaking of which, I need to channel that attitude as I get ready for the 5th! Tomorrow, I'm heading off to Columbus with my mom and sister to start R.A. training once again. I haven't really talked about it, but I'm really excited. I just got to work on those door decs....;-D.
