life plans

I feel like I should blog more (and I just really don't feel like cleaning my room) so I decided to attempt to write something. I don't really blog regularly which makes me sad. It's not like very many people even read these (and I don't expect them to) but I guess I just like contributing to the internet. I like being a part of it.
I think every day this week I've though, "I should blog," but I don't know what to blog about. Everything seems so trivial and at the same time life-altering. If that makes sense, which it probably doesn't. My life is changing once again. And I really hate transitional periods. But I've come to realize that life is just one big transition. I guess it's inescapable, so I better start enjoying it or I'm just going to be miserable.
I guess I could talk about my summer plans. I don't know what they are. That's the short answer. The long answer is a bit more complicated.

Things I'm (hopefully) doing this summer:

  • taking the last few credits I need for nursing school at community college
  • finding a job/working
  • exercising
  • volunteering
  • not hiding in my room on the internet because I'm too afraid of facing my future
I guess it doesn't seem so scary when I write it down. I would love to get a job in some form of childcare, whether it's at a day camp or being a nanny or something. I'm also hoping to still teach piano, but that's not really a big enough job (ie, I'm not going to make enough money being a piano teacher, unless I get quite a few more students, which I would totally be up for). I could also work in a office or something. I mean with my receptionist skills I've obtained this year working at the desk in my residence hall, people should be begging me to work in their office.
It's weird that I'm going home, but I'm also an adult. I'm going back to live with my parents and my brother and so much is different since I last lived there. It'll just be an adjustment. And hopefully I don't go too crazy.
I guess I am pretty excited about starting a new phase of my life. I just need to keep myself from regressing back to high school me. I can be an adult and I can be responsible and I can get a job and all that jazz. Because I am an adult and I am responsible. And life is complicated and it kind of takes a while to get the hang of it.
