Lots of change at one time + Megan = ?

There is a lot of change going on in my life right now. To describe my emotional state of being as being good would be a gross overexaggeration. Up and down up and down for the past few weeks. So instead of writing a book about it all, I'm going to make a list; a list with Yah!!! or Boo!! at the end of each item to represent how I was feeling at the time the event took place. Ok so here I go:

1) Quit my job at Ann Taylor and went back to working at The Limited at Southdale. Yah!!!
2) One of my best friends, Michelle, getting married. Yah!!!
3) Wells Fargo making an error on my checking account which caused two weeks of chaos. Boo!!
4) One of my best friends, Veronica, leaving for Maryland for the summer and Mexico City in the fall. Boo!!/Yah!!!
5) Another good friend, Megan, leaving for Maryland for graduate school. Boo!!/Yah!!!
6) Three of my good friends graduating from Luther Seminary. And finding out one of them will be returning with me in the fall. Yah!!!
7) Finding out my brother is going to be coming back to Minnesota after he graduates college at the end of June. Yah!!!

The Boo!!/Yah!!! are all the times I was happy for my friends and sad to see them go.

All this has happened in the last few weeks. I do not handle change very well, especially when it feels like I'm being left behind. But the time will come when it is my turn to head out on a new adventure of my own. I suppose I already am with returning to Luther in the fall. And so life goes on.

But this is not meant to be a sad depressing post. I suppose it kind of turned out that way. But as you can see, there have been more good things happening than bad, which has to count for something. The only really poopy thing that has happened is the bullshit with Wells Fargo. And yes, it is sad to see my friends go but it is not good bye forever, just for a little while.

So here's to new adventures and surviving lots of change at one time.
