Moving NORTH...

Time seems to go by so quickly these days. I feel like I just graduated... but in reality, it has been quite a  while.  I am moving to Danville, PA the first weekend of May. It feels weird only having one week left at work. I am taking a leap of faith and moving without having a job. My hope is that I will find one easier once I am up there( and be able to set up interviews more easily). 

The coming 2 months are going to be a whirlwind. Between moving, Dan's Cruise and Guys trip to Vegas, My trip home to Jacksonville, Dan's Graduation, and Wedding in Charleston...WE HAVE SO MUCH GOING ON.  The next couple months will be exciting at least. I am so very proud of Dan and all of his hard work.

Moving is bittersweet. I have done it many times before(over 10 times since high school). I actually hate the process of moving. Being older, it is very hard to make friends. I always find myself making friends, and then having to leave them. But that is life. I am very excited to be living so close to Dan. I cannot even begin to describe how much I despise long distance. I will never ever deal with long distance again. BUT I will miss the South something fierce. I really do love the South... honestly, southern hospitality is not a myth. I LOVE IT. But I also am excited for cooler weather( I hate sweating).

Most of all,  I will miss my family. I know that living in Raleigh, I did not get to see my parents all that often, But just knowing there were only two hours away was such a relief.... But at least it is only a short one hour flight home. GOSH, I LOVE MY FAMILY...

BUT I HAVE TO FOLLOW MY HEART... DR. DAN STOLE IT. <3

1st Blog!


Soooo, I am going to give this BLOG thing a shot. Even if no one else reads it, it might be nice to get everything out of my head.

I guess this blog will encompass the random ideas in my head, but more importantly will follow me on my journey into the real world.... aka finding a real job.

I knew this process would not be easy in the least, but I definitely did not think it would be as hard as I am finding it, especially with a degree. For those of you who don't know me, I recently graduated from NCSU(North Carolina State University) with a BS in Biological Sciences. I am not a normal college graduate, but one who has many years of life under the belt. After some life lessons and some time working in South Carolina, I returned to the better Carolina to finish up my degree. So now I find myself about to follow the man I love to Pennsylvania....

When you think of PA, you think if big cities like Philly or Pittsburgh.... but that is not where I will be heading. Danville, Pa is where I will be. If you have never heard of it, it is a very small city! But this man that I speak of has an amazing job lined up, so off I follow.

Well as my countdown to the move clicks away(May 31st), my nervousness and excitement increases..... TICK TOCK TICK TOCK!
