One event that took place in this time was graduation. Although I had finished school and technically "graduated" in January of this year I had decided to take part in the ceremony at the end of the year. Going back was nice getting to see everyone again and wish them luck on what ever was to come their way next. But like always there were things leading up to this day that made this day seem like it was just going to be a nightmare. Just a few of those would be picking up my cap and gown since they were handed out during the school day, reserving tickets, not receiving the correct tickets, planning who was going to come, and helping friends find extra tickets. In the end yes it was all worth it but until them I kept wondering if it was all going to pay off.
Another event was getting signed up for college classes. The hoops that the school makes you jump through are just crazy, and make you ask "what is the point of all this?" in the end I got all my classes set and even picked the days and times for my classes. One thing that I did not know that would come along with it until classes were started was that of getting my insurance all set so they to also know that I am a full time student still. This was just more headaches than I believe it should have been, but only time will tell if it has all been worth it.
A third event that took place was getting things settled in at work. Although everyday is doing the same thing, the pace is never the same. In the last few weeks thing have started to become regular as far as when I have been working and how many hours a week I am working. Although for now everything is good things are about to change and this change could go either good or bad, along with that when school gets started things will again change.
A forth and final large event that has happened and still in progress is the planing of my trip to India. The first part of this was figuring out how I was going to be able to pull it off with the cost of a trip like this, work, and making sure that mom and dad were okay with the whole thing. Yes, some may say that this is a once in a life time chance, but what they do not know is all the little details. Of course it is a trip with much to see and a lot to learn, but that is not the only reason for the trip either. The family that I have nannied for over the last two years are helping me pay and also their family is letting me stay with them so that always is nice when it comes to looking at the cost. One thing that I had to get done before I can pick dates was that I had to get my visa, which took about two weeks all in all. Although my parents were okay with me going they still had their questions and also had a right to know that part of the reason of me taking this trip had changed. Yes their questions did get answered and so did some of the new ones that came up after finding out the extra reason for making the trip now and not later. I am sure you are also wondering. Well the main reason I am looking to go now and not later is because a cousin, of the father of the family that I nanny for, and I have been talking for a while now and we both would very much like to meet, and see where thing would go from there. And with all of this the only part that is left is to find dates that work for their family and also for me, and then it is off I go to India.
So I know what you are thinking why does it matter that us meeting happens now or later, it is the fact that many parents want their children married at a certain age so that they to can have a family and enjoy life happy with someone they love. And well it just so happens that he is reaching that age and I too also would very much love to find the one that I will spend the rest of my life with, say what you will about not knowing what I want because I am to young but I do not think that is true, I don't think that there is a right age I think it is different for each of us.
So yes these events have not been bad at all they still have made my life crazy with spurts of calm but in the end just like any other time something or things happens in your life you are always left with the same question in the end. "Where has time gone?" I neither have an answer for you but I do know that the more you enjoy the little moments the more you will want to celebrate the huge moments.
~Take everyday for what it is worth and never overlook any of the little things for those may be the things that make the big things all worth it in the end.~
