The weekend with the family was successful but I'm glad to be back on campus. I mean, it was a little bit stressful to be honest. I had to skip a class on Friday to get home in time to get my license redone at the courthouse because I lost it when I was out one night. BUT my mom got a flat on the way so my dad had to drop everything and start driving to get me so we could make it in time. That pretty much sums up the hectic whirlwind pace of the rest of the weekend. Shopping for some more fall clothes (closet is looking pretty skimpy when it comes to cool weather attire: thanks a lot high school uniforms) and snacks to take back to campus. Not to mention birthday celebrations we had to fit into one day. And of course there was the homework, gotta love it.
So it was awesome to see the fam, but I didn't really leave myself much time to actually enjoy them, except when they took me back to campus. I did get a nice birthday lunch that we managed to drag out for 2+ hours. It was sad to see them go because I could tell they wished they could spend more time with me, but I was ready to get back to my dorm and be with my friends and settle back in for the week ahead. It's not that I don't miss them, because I do. It's just that this is where I live and have most of my life now. Thanksgiving break will be different, more time to enjoy their company and home cooked meals! But let's not get ahead of ourselves...first comes Fall break and then Halloween!
