Labor Day
It seems very surreal that tomorrow is labor day. For the past 14 years I have always attended my great aunt Sylvia's labor day picnic. Usually, the event marks the official end of summer and the beginning of back to school for me. This year it is rather odd. I won't be going to the picnic and I am not in grade school anymore. It actually puts perspective onto the time I have spent thus far at E-town. So far college has seemed like; first a volleyball camp and second a summer camp. I have been rushing around from practice to orientation events in a manner that makes time seem irrelevant. I guess labor day puts it into perspective that this is where I am now. I am not one to go home every weekend. Don't get me wrong my family and my home are the greatest physical connection I have. I feel though now is a time for me. College is where one can figure out who they are with no other influence. I plan on using this time accordingly to figure out who I am and what I want to do with my life. I thought I would have broke down by now but I am running on a different path than I thought I would be. I like to think and plan everything out and then I normally get pissed when things don't go the way I want them to. However, college has gone differently than I expected and I am going with the changes surprisingly well. So I hope I have a fun but different labor day tomorrow.
