Currently :: May

And we're here. June. I have a feeling June is going to mark both the best and worst days of my life. The best? Well, hello, Europe. I'm leaving in exactly 16 days for that adventure, and can't even begin to think about it or else I'll pass out from excitement. The worst? Graduation. I can't even begin to think about it or else I'll pass out from anxiety slash sadness slash not-being-ready-ness.

Watching :: Buffy the Vampire Slayer and FRIENDS. Racing to finish them before the school year ends. Also, dying for the new season of Pretty Little Liars to begin. Totally ready for my head to spin from all the nonsensical storylines again, like why the heck would you go into the dark by yourself EVER THOUGH.

Eating :: all the things. Exhibit A: every minute of my weekend getaway to LA. Additionally making an effort to try new places around town before we leave - step one was the local New York bagels place.

Wanting :: to hammer out the details of our graduation walk. Stay tuned - you guys will love this.
Planning :: Europe, obviously. We have about 90% of it set in stone, but need one more train, two more flights, and two more AirBnBs. I'm itching to be back in that invigorating state of travel, of anticipation. 

Reading :: not a lot of blogs (apparently). I usually read every last post in my Bloglovin' on the day that it's posted, but right now I'm backlogged at about 200+ posts. It's frustrating being behind on something I love so much, but I'm happy to know that I'm using this time doing other worthwhile things as well.

Making :: so many memories. My friends and I have been making a conscious effort to enjoy these days, these wonderful, carefree, worry-free days that we're so privileged to have. From wine-tasting with our whole senior class, to attending all the events that we can, to terrible roadtrip traffic, to playing random games on a Sunday night (Paranoia, as recommended by Sarah) (yes it was last night) (yes it was such a good time), it's been the best month.

Saying :: "how did we get to this point so quickly."

Noticing :: how I'm surrounded by such amazing people. The best people. The smartest, the most compassionate, the most driven. I'm lucky to know them.
Needing :: these next two weeks to crawl at a snail's place. I know it won't. But oh do I hope for it to be so.

Learning :: to embrace the uncertainty.

Feeling :: conflicting emotions – everything's bittersweet. But beyond anything, I feel so, so, SO lucky that this is where my life has ended up. These four years have been better than anything I could have ever dreamed or wished or hoped for.

  1. Can't believe you are graduating so soon. The excitement mixed with terror is such a strange mixture of emotions. I'm still feeling it a year after graduation. You're going to have the most amazing European adventure, I seriously cannot wait to read all about it. Yee, so exciting!!!

  2. As someone who graduated two weeks ago, I totally relate. May was the craziest month ever (from finishing finals to walking at graduation to moving out of my entire apartment) but it was still one of the best experiences ever, top to bottom. Hope you have an amazing time!
