the first one

Hi. My name is Lauren and want to first off say that I've never had one of these. I've tried to keep journals or diaries to document my life so that I can look back and be able to re-live what I might have forgotton as the years go on. BUT, I find myself getting two weeks into them and then losing momentum... so here I am trying something new, hoping it will stick :) I did used to have a livejournal where I would post prose and poetry but then that even seemed to get old quickly. That and the fact that I felt very emo splashing my feelings about life and relationships across cyber space, lol.
To start off with I'll give the basics of my life right now. I am offically a cwa 2007 high school graduate. I'm headed off to California for college in the fall. I just started a new job as a waitress and am finishing training tomorrow. yah! I'll finally get to serve on my own and make my own tips :) I have my "server final" tomorrow, which is kinda intimidating but its basically just questions about the food and menu stuff...im hoping!
Otherwise I'm just enjoying myself and trying to take advantage of my last summer home. I still catch myself thinking about high school and classes in fall, which is an understandable habit since I went there for 14 years, but it is real and I am leaving. Bittersweet I guess.
What else? I have a boyfriend of a little over a year and a half :) very happy. but he's staying here and I'm going so we have already subtley agreed that we wont be together next year. I dont know how I feel about it. Sad, of course but I rarely think about it because then I start freaking myself out that I'm not going to have him soon so its better just to enjoy the good stuff right now. yeah? Well, whether its right or wrong to aviod the subject I wouldn't want the thought of how hard its going to be in a few months to ruin what we have now (if that makes sense.)
