Life is exciting when change is just around the corner and you can smell something fresh and intoxicating swirling your direction. My life is at such a point. I am heading on to a new phase in my life--college. Before heading out to university though, I am attending a program in Oregon for the fall semester. I have my own reasons for taking this detour and I am very confident that it will be worthwhile.
I can't put my finger on what exactly is so intoxicating about change, but it gives me some sort of a high. I love new and unpredictable things, and at this time in my life a change is sorely needed. After returning home from boarding academy, life has been kind of eerie. It's almost as if I'm living in an era of my life that has long since died. I'm itching to begin a new age and focus on jump-starting fresh experiences. Friendships from my pre-boarding school days have become ghosts. I don't know how to explain it other than to say that it merely feels as if I'm living in a ghost town, a haunted house if you will, of my old life. And it is not a pleasant experience. I am aching with anxious energy to begin writing my life out on a new page and flip the old one out of sight and mind.
