So I haven't written in here for a bit, so I found it appropriate to post again.
Yesterday was an overall interesting day. Work started out depressing with doing one of the most gruesome procedures in the practice, but I actually handled it okay. I found that, yes, animals are cute and snuggly, but when it comes to their life, you can't really base things on 'cuteness'. Everything is logical reasoning... and it obviously makes sense. I have really enjoyed shadowing the vet thus far and have realized many different things about the profession. I definitely intend on continuing it when I return.
And I got to feed some bears (yes, pet bears... this lady was loaded) blueberries! That fulfilled my cuteness factor for the day.
Then I went out to the lake with Alexi for bit. She wakeskated, which looks like tons of fun (except bloody knuckles). I think I might try to use my chucks on that thing... haha. I would pimp it out.
I wakeboarded not too much longer afterwards. I was so surprised that I got up so easily and EVERY TIME. Not once did I fail at getting up... I was so proud of myself!!! Oh, then I jumped this wake and faceplanted really hard. My mom thinks I got a concussion. Way to go, me.
I have never experienced that bad of a headache. Ever.
Hopefully, if Alexi can get her bum up and running, we can spend a good amount of time together out on the lake again today. She makes me so happy... I love that girl. I really don't know what I am going to do when I leave, because I know she will be upset, which in turn makes me upset. Upsetness galore... argh.
I am going to miss alot of others, as well.
Hannah and I have gotten so much closer and really has helped me release how I have felt about things. My parents said I needed 'therapy' earlier in the year, but I shoved it away. Now I realize that this is the equivalent to therapy... just talking things out and not holding things back. I am just glad to have someone like her who talks and listens. And to think we were so different not that long ago...
Oh, and Lindsay. That girl is the sweetest thing in the world and I don't know what I am going to do without our runs and being stalked at Char's (eww). And who is she going to go out to Clay's lakehouse with?? I want to hang out with her and also introduce her to Alexi, because I think they would get along great.
And Brudder. Ohhh, I won't have a chess partner for every coffee I get in summer school. Or him and Will to cross the creek with at Finch Park. Poop. At least the ridiculously preppy style of Sewanee will remind me of him. And we definitely have Warped Tour to jam to when I get back... I cannot WAIT! Even though the bands aren't exactly as spectacular as the past years, I think we will still have a blast.
I'll also get to see Matt when I get back. I miss that kid... after that almost 3 hour phone convo, I realized how much I do miss having him around. Plus, he would be super proud of my wakeboarding improvements... and not so proud of my swimming progress so far -oops.
There is someone else I would mention, but they have recently disappointed me (unsurprisingly, though), so that's my list of who I'm really going to miss.
I guess I can look forward to what's in store when I come back...
Only 3 full days left. :[
