today i cleaned/picked up/put away everthing in my bedroom, the tv room, and my locker/cubbie. i never realized how much organized junk i have and i’m extremely happy that i threw most of it out. it took me three and half hours, but i feel much knowing all of my stuff is where it belongs before i leave for OREGON.
tomorrow i will pack, and on wednesday i will wait and wait until it’s finally time to leave and then i will have to endure a six hour flight possible between two strangers. but the week and a half that i will be in oregon will make me forget that. i’m so excited to sit with my uncles and cousins late at night on the porch of the lakehouse we rented while we talk about everyone and everything with sometimes crude and always amazing humorous comments sprinkled in. i can’t wait to eat mexican food from someplace other than taco bell, to climb up then slide down the massive sand dunes, and to gather driftwood on the beach to make a bonfire. hopefully it will be the highlight of my summer.
