Moving Day

 

Today I am driving back to Lexington, KY to officially move the rest of my things out of my apartment and back home for good.

This is bittersweet for me for so many reasons.

I have gone through a lot the past 4 years in Lexington.

Reminiscing back on those 4 years brings back so many great memories.

My freshman year consisted of:

• Joining a sorority - Delta Zeta 
•  Gaining 300 new girlfriends {along with the freshman 15}
• Going to every UK sporting event possible {not so many baseball games just yet though}
• And leaving my long-time high school boyfriend to become more independent

Sophomore year was a little different:

• I moved into my sorority house with a new roommate who became a great friend
• Lost 10 of the freshman 15 {those last 5 are always the hardest to lose}
• Still went to every UK sporting event, but this time baseball was the main focus, because…
• And I met the love of my life – Taylor {another post will tell more about him, this is about me}

Junior year the schoolwork hit hard:

• This was the year of Organic Chemistry {insert many all-nighters here}
• I moved into my own house with my roommate from Sophomore year
• I adopted my puppy – Mena {drove me nuts the first year tearing up everything}
• I was taking 20 hours each semester - filled with all science courses
• And Taylor pretty much lived with me {we only saw each other during the hours of 9PM-7AM}

Senior year was up and down:

• I moved into an apartment complex with my roommate from Sophomore and Junior year
• Mena became the most well behaved and trained puppy I could ask for {my best friend}
• I only had one more semester to complete – 21 hours {still crazy busy}
• Began the application process for pharmacy school {only one interview though}
• And got my first job as a Pharmacy Technician at Kroger

Looking back on those 4 years - I can’t help but smile.

Although I have grown up so much, I still have a long way to go.

I’m not exactly thrilled to be moving back home with my parents, but I know it’s the right thing to do at this point in my life.

As for my career, I am wait listed at my top choice pharmacy school and praying every day that I will get that call telling me I have been accepted.

The first day of classes is August 13^th, exactly a month from today.

According to the admissions office, I can get a call anytime up until the start date.

I’m putting my faith in the Lord that he will give me what I’m ready for.

Whether it’s beginning pharmacy school or taking a year off to live with my parents and work.

I know the Lord will not give me more than I can handle. 

 

 

Time to get on the road.

Until next time…
