Four Days Left

... until I go back to school. I have ordered all of my books off of Amazon, saving SO MUCH because the book store at school likes to drain the students bank accounts, and as of tomorrow I will have started packing. But, the exciting thing is that one of my classes required more material than could be purchased from Amazon. An Acoustic GUITAR! Typing with my new nails is proving t be a lt more complicated than I remember and they're going to hae to go before my most anticipated class of Spring 2009 begins, but yes I am finally going to do my best at learning how to play the guitar. Playing the guitar has been a goal of mine for a very long time and I am finally doing something about it. I am seriously hoping that I have more luck with this thn the drums, piano, trumpet, violin, and flute (all instruments I have dabbled with). But the difference between guitar and those others is that guitar is not only something I want to learn, it is something I need to learn. Its a long story but a job that is part of my current five year plan requires that I am fluent in guitar, so I am finally taking matters into my own hands because freaky friday isn't real and i won't wake up one day having traded lives with Santana.












I am also excited about going back to school for many other reasons than just the guitar;

Number 1: I get to rush. People make fun of me for it, but it doesn't change the fact that I have been dreaming about being in a Sorority since I could pronounce Delta Gamma. Unfortunatly, there is no DG at Elon, so I've ad to do some reconsidering, but going into recruitment I feel incredibly prepared. I feel like I have done enough aequate research on every house that now I can relax an meet the girls and find what feels like home... well as much as could feel like home in NC. I am excited to dress in my buisness casual and cocktail atire. I am excited to learn all about different organizations phialnthropys, but most of all I am excited to meet a huge group of girls who have all gone through their first year at college and have miraculously survived. I am excited to have sisters at school, since I miss mine so much.

Number 2: Getting closer to picking my major. Political Science or History or some combination of the two. I am taking American Government and US History Since 1865. Both classes that I am incredibly excited about with teachers who did really well on Rate My Prof. These are the subjects I have been interested in since as long as I can remember and having both of them at once is like BOOM, as Chris would say and Catie would try to.

Number 3: I am ready for it to be summer and having school start means its closer. As simple as that.

Number 4: This really shouldn't be four it should be one but I am missing the girls of Danieley I 203, and Cocloughy (sp?) 101, 102 and that one boy in 103. I am excited to see everyone again and to get back into the swing of things. Going to visit Ben at Stanford made me want to get back to my own college campus.

All in all I have a lot to do before I go, but it is time to go back. I finally understand what that feels like.
