This time next week, I will probably be on an elliptical in the AFC, getting my workout on. It feels good to know that, but its also disappointing to know that tomorrows breakfast is the last family breakfast in the Homa Household until late November. Cory heads off to Paris Island tomorrow, and I leave next week. I don't know about anyone elses families, but in my house, breakfast on the weekends is a family thing, and the counter is littered with food. Enough that we normally sit around the table for an hour, and its not like betty crocker or bob evans stuff. Its homemade goodness in the form of whatever my dad decides to make that morning. Its not only the food, its just a happy time before we all start arguing about what all we have to do with one of the houses(currently my aunts that we are finishing remodeling), and who needs what for whatever. Its just like a happy Homa family ritual that I do end up missing when I am away.
But, I miss my school rituals. I miss going to class with Julianne, Kate(come back!!!), and Abby. I miss hanging out and singing Total Ecclipse of the Heart with Liv, and listening to the crazy random ideas that are brought out randomly. I miss Natalie running around like a crazy person for films, and not seeing Cubby for days at a time because of the Communique. Its weird, but that is the routine I miss.
Its not like this summer has been lacking, its been wonderful. I have a brother(who will eventually be a brother in law), my sister and I got along. I saw my Jessica Anne, and my Brit Brat graduated. Its weird, she's like my little sister. My little sister is going to be a senior, which makes me feel old. We had almost weekly monopoly nights for a while, and hide n go seek tag in the amazingly awesome wooden playground. Ironically called the Stow Kids Playground, but by how its painted, it looks like the Slow Kids Playground. Yes, my friends and I belong there. I acted, goofy, young, and happy, and it was really needed to heal. Ian and I are alright, working on it, and he is giving me more space when I need it. My best friend believes that we are either going to be the most monogamous couple ever, or blow up in flames one day. I learned to live my life one day at a time, and to never regret anything you do, even if you get yelled at while doing it. Life's too short to be so stressed out from things that aren't under your control, or to spend all couped up because of what others think. Go out there and put your heart into everything, because it could be your last day here, and what fun is it if you go out being disappointed or pissed off? Be thankful for every day you have, and every person who comes into your life.
Theme of the summer for me: Skyway Avenue by We The Kings
Best Memory: Getting yelled at by a cop for playing Hide N Go Seek Tag with Sara and Greg after dark at the Awesomely Amazing Wooden Playground. Playing Blops with Holly and Cory. Oreo Truffle batches that lasted all of 10 hours. Even being stuck in an airport for 12 hours trying to get home from Denver Colorado, while Cory messed around in a Wheel Chair all day.
Quotes of the Summer: "Why is Pikachu in the Corner?" by Cory.
"Just because I wish to save myself till marriage....Fuck you Laurel" by Adam Henderson.(Sorry bud, you can't have it both ways).
