Starting over…again
Sunday, June 4th, 2006I just realized the title of this post sounds like a self-help book for divorcees! Awww. The fact remains that I am starting over yet again, with a new place, a new job, and new faces. I also realized that even though I didn’t act on earlier ideas of traveling around in Central America before settling on a job, living in south Florida is the next best thing! I have no doubt that this will be a new cultural experience for me even though it’s only a 4 1/2 hour drive down from Gainesville. Moving all my stuff down here wasn’t nearly as bad as I’d anticipated. I really don’t have all that much stuff, considering I sold off all the furniture I had last year once I’d graduated. Still, I had an inconceivably large pile of boxes that I had absolutely no idea of what might be contained inside. It’s amazing to think I lived out of a backpack all last summer, and out of one huge suitcase for the six months I was in London and didn’t really miss any of it, but I packed it all in a moving truck to bring down here just the same.
