ready for some fun!

Sitting in Starbucks drinking tea before my overnight shift. I was so desperate to get out of my house that I left for work like an hour early..

I am having a girls night out tomorrow night and I feel like I reallyyyyy need it! I'm excited to spend some time drinking and dancing and doing nothing but having fun with some of my favourite girlies! I feel like the last couple weeks have been really intense and serious and lacking in the fun department. Well, still fun but not in the letting loose kind of way. So much caffiene, a lot of time spent at the hospital, a lot of wine and a lot of serious conversation. My life feels busy but it's only going to get busier come January when I go back to school so I want to make the most of the time I have now to enjoy the freedom. The thing about school is that the work is never ending so even if I get a break from work I'm gonna have to think about tests, assignments, etc. All that good stuff. I am nuts to go back haha.. I remember how tortured I felt a lot of the time. But being away from it has been a different kind of torture. My brain needs stimulation and new information to thrive on. I start to seriously miss learning. Especially when I'm working two jobs that are not exactly stimulating because I am doing what I already know how to do. When I'm in school I feel like I have some sort of purpose. I can't believe there was a time when I thought I would never go back to school. It's crazy to think about where I would be now had I not.. not writing this blog called "How Africa Changed Me" - that is for sure!
