A Moo Perspective on telling it how it is and saying goodbye...

What REALLY happened this summer...


This summer was the summer of my life. It was a summer where I actually felt like I was growing up and I actually felt like a teenager, even though I'm 18. (Guess it's never too late)


I spent a week at a hospital because of my sister's hip surgery. It was there where I discovered what I really wanted to do for the rest of my life. That stay inspired a change of interest in my major, and an appreciation for my sister's bravery.


A few weeks later I spent a week at HOBY. Most of the time I felt like a third wheel, but I had a very awesome friend to count on throughout the week, despite his awkwardness. (See the "awkward" blog below) :)


I saw so many 3D movies this summer, it was crazy: from Captain America to the Glee Concert. I keep the 3D glasses, so I have a collection now.


I went to the Midnight premiere of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2, after having an all-day harry potter marathon at my house with friends.


I got pulled over for the first time for having my brights on as a cop passed by.


I drove myself to places, since I live in a small town it was necessary to go shopping or to the movies. My independence increased.


It was my first summer living on a farm...and it was great. No allergies and all the perks of watching the sunrise, sunset, and thunderstorms perfectly.


I came to actually look forward to Mondays during this summer. :)


I was "in a relationship" for the first time in my life during the summer. I don't like talking about it...but it happened and it was part of my summer. We broke it off before coming to college due to the long distance. Which sucks because before, he was my guy best friend and we have inside jokes that I can't even begin to explain to other people. He suggested we be friends and keep in touch during college. Lately, it really hasn't been working out. Who knows, it could be the best thing that ever happened to me. Truth is, I don't think I need to feel like i'm being ignored or avoided. Time to move on and grow up, i guess.


I blogged for a year during my senior year of high school. I plan to blog again about the college experience...the whole idea is still "under construction." This is a goodbye though. This should be the last entry on this blog. It's been great! :)
