Today marks the fact that I have one month until I will be moving into a dorm at SPU!! SOO excited for that day. However, as a result of the fact that I will be moving out of the room that I have lived in since the beginning of High School, I had a TON to clean out! I mean alot. Anyone who knows me knows I am constantly cleaning. Like all the time =) Mainly because I have a small room, I'm a packrat, and I always just dump and go until I can no longer see my floor. So basically my mom and I spent Saturday night cleaning out my entire room preparing to leave because I don't have any free weekends until I leave. It was good that I got through and forced myself to go through piles of junk. However, I have learned so much in that room and to see it empty is rather sad. To remove all of the things I have collected over the past year on my ribbon board and place them in a box labled senior year just brought tears to my eyes. I had soo much fun this past year, in and amongst learning alot of hard lessons, but it finally hit me that I am leaving. I have graduated High School, I have my AA degree, and I will be attending a university. I guess sometimes God brings us new stages in life before we think we are ready for them because it is a part of His plan, and as I prepare to move on, I know God will equip me to cherish my high school years, but also to embrace my college ones.
My room before it was cleaned. The entire room really looked like that...piles everywhere and I had stuff all over the walls.
My room now =/ All of my walls, doors, and windows are clean. Bookshelf is empty as well as my desk. And that pile of stuff at the end of my bed is suitcase #3 for college =p
