waiting

I am 2 finals, 1 presentation (due tomorrow) and 1 paper away from being done with my MSW. Which of course makes me super excited.


But I find myself quite frustrated because I am ready for the next thing. For Peace Corps, to know where I am going, to work at camp, for all these things that are coming up. It's weird because I'm thinking back to the Summer after I graduated college, and I find myself in the exact same place. I am waiting on the next thing, which makes me lose sight of what I am doing right now. Being content with where I am at is something that's hard for me...and I think it's hard for most people. We are a society of people that wants more stuff, bigger cars, more technical gadgets. So, I want to try and be happy with now. Be happy with my presentation due tomorrow. Be in the moment. Instead of waiting on the next thing.

This is what happens when Jacey and I want to be rebellious and look bad a. We dye our hair!

'Waiting is the hardest part'. Cliche and true. September will be here. Fast. I love our rebellion. We should do it again before you leave.
