These last few days have been wonderful! I have hung out with some really great friends, been working at a place I love and just "livin' life".
Not only do I have an amazing friend group, but I have so many friends outside of my usual group that are simply wonderful. Elizabeth and Ellen, the LMF (low maintenance friends) as we like to call ourselves, are amazing friends! We don't hang out all the time or know everything about each other's current lives, but none of that matters. When we are together, everything just feels right. The three of us have been friends since the second grade and I couldn't imagine having friends better than them. The LMF part is probably the coolest part hahaha :] because we don't need to talk all the time, hang out or tell one another every single detail. Plus, we all have separate core friend groups, so there is no drama...ever!
The Fab 5 finally reunited the other night and things are back to where we left off last summer. Yes, things have changed, people have changed and life is always changing...but the reason I am friends with these amazing girls remains constant. Carolyn's stories are still laughably long, Sarah falls asleep because she works 100 hours, Ash is still sweet and upbeat and Gabrielle laughs at everything....things are pretty much the same as we left them last August :) It's cool to have friends like the Fab 5 that are so accepting, kind, compassionate and fun. I can't wait for a summer filled with pictures, ice blocking, laser tag, dinners and fun! LOVE YOU GIRLS :]
After a wonderful time hanging out with great friends, reality sets back in. I still have a lot to do. The biggest thing I am putting off right now, is telling my roommate from last year and this coming year that I am no longer returning to Fordham. Seems easy and like I have waited so long to tell her, but I cannot explain how much I respect her. My roommate and I experienced so much with each other this past year that she feels like a life long friend. We overcame death, hatred, family issues, moving, academic issues and so much more that telling her I won't be right beside her next year...kills me. She was a wonderful roommate and if I have any regrets about my decision to move on to a new plan, it's her. I have to tell her and my two other amazing suitemates I will not be returning within the next week, and I don't know how it is going to go :/ I know she will be upset, but I have to keep telling myself that it is not my fault. I had no control over the situation and this is just how it is. I am so deeply sorry that I have to hurt her but I have already waited to long and need to fill her in. Trust, honesty and a lot of faith will be need over the next week and I hope things work out okay. Breezie, Carly and especially Amanda...I love you girls so much and I am sorry this is the way it had to happen. I wish you only the best the next 3 years at Fordham and I know you will do amazing things!! Winner Chicken Dinner 4 Lyfeeeee.
7 Weeks and 6 days until I make my journey to Peru to volunteer for 9 months....and I couldn't be more excited! It feels really good to be living out my dream and living a life of service to others! CAN'T WAIT :]
