I have Accomplished Close to Nothing in One Month

Well... I graduated exactly one month ago and the most important thing I have accomplished so far is unpacking.  I was home for 17 days before I moved from sleeping on the couch to my own bed due to the mass amounts of boxes in my room and finding better things to do with my time rather than unpacking. Over the past month I have been keeping busy so I won't get depressed thinking about how awesome my roommates were, the apartment, and all of my college friends.

My first adventure after graduation was tagging along on a Perrault family vacation to Disney World! The most magical place on Earth- and if by magic you mean getting lost at Blizzard Beach, expensive drinks and rides breaking down, then yes- very magical.  But it really was a great time.  The Perrault family is hilarious, and their friends are even funnier.  We had a great time roaming around the boardwalk, watching the light show, Locked Up Raw marathons and unsuccessfully faking a british accent to men who were clearly british. That was a big fail.





My next adventure was supposed to be to Cape Cod- but instead I magically ended up in Weare, NH visiting my future husband.  Don't worry, he is well aware that I am forcing him to marry me when we're 25 so we can have beautiful mocha babies. While there, I blew him out of the water with my rapping skills by performing Busta Rhymes' fastest-rapper-alive lyrics from "Look At Me Now." Quite a feat if I may say so myself.  Then we went to the beach the next day and played lacrosse where we both showed off our sweet stick skills.  And by "show off" i mean attempting to pull off D1 skills. Not so successful. Before I left we decided we going to get as sexy as possible this summer (i.e. doing a little more p90x and a little less buffet eating- a GIANT sacrifice on my part). We text each other every day for a little bit of motivation.

Then I was on the home stretch- literally.  A late night drive back to farmland, aka Maine, meant that college was over for good.  I'd be lying if I told you I didn't spend most of that drive crying.Once home, instead of unpacking a years worth of good memories, I decided to consume my days with scrapbooking.  For at least 4 hours a day I was scrapbooking (or scrapping as we like to call it) with my cousin.  Sometimes we'd even pull 2-a-days.  It's exhausting, and nothing short of disappointing when your own mother doesn't appreciate the time and creativity it takes to cut out pictures, designs and layer paper.

I have now slowly unpacked and and finally have moved from the basement couch to my own twin bed in my purple and green high school decorated room.  I've also spent hours a day mowing or raking the yard.  Not the most exciting thing but when your do it in a bikini you're rewarded with a sunkissed glow, so it's not all bad.

Once I recieve my transcripts I will have a summer job as an Ed Tech for a summer school program.  So future employers and parents: be relieved when I tell yout that I will temporarily be employed! Assuming my transcripts get mailed soon... fingers crossed.

Don't worry, all of my posts won't be this long... I hope.
