I have a hunch these next eight months are going to travel by reeeally fast. I'm going to love being home and resting up in peace with no distractions. My dad is going to run a network cable down into my basement area so that I can sit down there and research without being bothered. I like having a personal area. It makes life tolerable.
Good things about this plan overall:
- I get to spend time with my little sisters.
- I get to write my senior history project here at home, where all my sources for the history of homeschooling are.
- I can sleep enough.
- There is absolutely no way for me to get involved in student government stuff, so I can relax and let other people handle all that junk.
- I can take Tae Kwon Do classes and finish earning my 2nd Dan black belt!!!
- I can exercise regularly, lose my extra 15 lbs, and get into really good physical shape.
- If I want to, I can bake cookies.
- I can write stories when they strike me, instead of waiting for a week or two and losing the incentive.
- Since I will be doing the grocery shopping most often, I can buy whatever I want to eat with somebody else's money. ;)
- I'll see spring come and actually be able to help plant our gardens.
- I can watch movies in the theatre frequently, and it will cost me $6.50 or less (instead of $8.50!).
- I'll earn money to help pay for my last year.
And on that last note, since I'll be paying my own room and board this last year, I can move off-campus if I so desire! I think I will so desire, but I'm not entirely sure. I do have eight months to figure it out. :)
