I just finished watching a movie called Sorority Wars. It was a vary typical Mean Gurls/Sydney White chick flick, but I love Lucy Hale, who plays the lead, and I really love those kinds of movies anyway. They were showing her at parties, making friends, and of course l, roping in a sexy dude and I realized that...holy crap...I'm going to be living that life very soon.
Obviously it's more likely to be much less stellar than a movie. But the movie successfully (though no doubt temporarily) chased out all the nervous butterflies from my stomach and warmed my feet a little. Well, the warm feet might be because I finally got up and grabbd a blanket, but you know what I mean. I'm just so...excited. I see my friends' Facebook (statuses? stati?) and the ones already at school and starting classes are raving about their respective school's magnificence. And I sit at my computer desk at my house, stare into the screen and think, "Only too soon will that be me." I just can't fathom it some days.
As excited as I am, I'm also extremely sad. I had to say bye to my absolute best friend in the world today. She's leaving on a family trip in the morning and won't be back until after I've left. Of course we already planned when she would visit me (she's a senior this year and therefore not going off to school anywhere) but at the same time it's going to strange not being able to spontaneously sleep over at each other's houses or watch moves together every night or see each other in the hallways at school and laugh about something that no one else would think is funny. She's going to be one of the hardest parts of leaving this dump.
