Wow... I am so consistent with my writing.

I am thinking that the start of school is coming up pretty fast. It is just starting to become a reality... It stills seems surreal that I am moving to Poughkeepsie. It should definitely be interesting, although I am not sure what to expect. So far I know I have about eight roommates in an upperclassmen dorm, but my room assignment could change before school starts. The dorm I have now has four bedrooms, two baths and a kitchen, so that would be nice as a opposed to a regular dorm room.

I hope that I make some friends right away. That is the main thing I am nervous about. I seem to get along with most people, but some people are just hard to like. Or I might get stuck with a snobby roommate that doesn't like fat people... that would suck.

I am not going to worry about school though, if I start to worry then I won't be able to enjoy my 3 weeks of vacation I have coming up starting tomorrow! Woohooo! Goodbye Puddle Jumpers, Hello New Life. :)

I don't think I am really going to be sad about my last day at Puddle Jumpers tomorrow. Working there was getting really monotonous and tiring. I love Grace and Emily and it's sad that I won't be able to see them grow up, but even if I stayed at this job, I would have to say goodbye sometime. It's not worth putting my dreams on hold just to hold on to the kids I adore just a little longer.

The main thing about Puddle Jumpers that I will miss is working with Mary. She cracks me up like no one else. She makes up the weirdest little songs when she is irritated and it amuses me to no end. Plus she is my fellow fat-lady. It's nice to have someone else around who understands and appreciates the trauma and trials of being a fatty. I feel so comfortable around her, there is no judgment. It's nice that we can be silly or serious and still enjoy each other's company. People like her don't come around everyday.

I am not really sure how much stuff I am actually going to bring to school. I have a list started... but it seems like a lot of the stuff in my bedroom can just stay at home because I don't really use it much. Like all my books... most of my photo albums... all the crap in my white closet... etc. I do want to bring my art supplies though, I have to be able to make birthday cards while I am away.

I bought my bedding and towels so far and I am getting ready to buy a computer. Doug is going to help me find a good laptop. I also want to buy a TV for my room because we all know how obsessed I am with TV. Woohoo. I have like 20 shows that I want to watch in a week. Hehe. But schoolwork is going to be the most important thing. I have five classes the first semester which is a lot, but two are fashion classes, one is art and one is English. All of those subjects agree with me. Philosophy is the last class, and I am not sure how I will like that but I am willing to give it a try. I am going to bring Mom's sewing machine with me so that I can work on my sewing projects in my room if I want to. (I can watch TV at the same time!)

I hope my roommate has a bedspread that at least doesn't clash with mine. It should be alright... most colors go with navy blue. But I really like things to be all coordinated... especially mono-chromatic. I love that look. All my bedding is in different shades of blue with just a few hints of green. Hot. :)

My dad just walked by and laughed at my comment about the bedding. Hey... I am sorry if I like things to match. Maybe I am neurotic but I don't think so. :) You'll have to let me know what you think... now that you've read all my innermost thoughts. ~
