Here I am.

Classes are officially complete. I moved out of my freshman dorm, and I'm ready to start my life back at home. Honestly, I feel like I am going to be really bored.

I feel like I am going from 100 MPH to nothing. I am afraid I am going to find myself with nothing to do. I usually spend my summers just lounging about and reading, but this year, it isn't something that I want to do.

That's why I am setting goals now.

Over the summer, I plan to start getting healthy by running and changing my eating habits. Walking hasn't been much of a problem because I had to walk all around campus in order to get to class. The problem has been eating healthy.

Once Marketplace, a major food place at Rowan, closed down, I was unable to eat as many vegetables as I am used to. So I am hoping to cook healthy food and make sure that I change my eating habits so that I can be healthier.

Besides getting physically healthy, I am hoping to get mentally healthy as well. This past semester has been especially hard on me mentally because I have felt extremely stressed and overworked consistently. So over the summer, I plan to spend time getting myself better.

I also hope to focus on my hobbies. I started embroidering and I hope to finish the patches that I started over spring break. I also want to work to make sure that I take time to step back and relax, to make sure I am doing this for myself.

This summer is not going to be one spent alone in my room doing nothing. Instead, it is going to be one where I continue to do things that will make me happy and keep my mind going so that I am okay with everything going on.

I am going to strive to keep myself positive because after multiple summers of just consistantly being sad, it's time to change.

I do think I have the attitute to do great things this summer.
