Summer has arrived...

and I am officially the worse blogger ever. My initial reasoning for starting a blog was to reflect on my last few weeks in college. Obviously, I failed.

Life goes on.

Graduation was perfect, a love-fest of sorts. I can honestly say I loved every minute. It was a truly beautiful day, and thanks to Sir Edward Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance a tremendously emotional one. Seriously, it gets me every time. 

I can sit here for hours and talk about how much I miss school, however doing so will only force me back into the wallowing stage I experienced week one of being home. So I will refrain from reminiscing at this point and instead look ahead...

I'm not exactly sure to what, but I feel that it is the appropriate direction. 

As I embark on this new chapter of my life ( the chapter where I tirelessly look for employment and continually face feelings of frustration) I can't help but envy small children. While picking up my 4-year-old nephew from school the other day I saw that he and the rest of his class had small sunflower plants they had planted that day in school. Why can't I spend my day planting sunflower seeds?! (I mean I could, but my family and friends would start to worry) My point is - I miss being a carefree kid. This is teetering on wallowing so I should stop. 

I suppose I do in fact have summer to look forward to and I mine as well enjoy all this free time. So as a nod to Summer I present my favorite summer song. Let the carefree adventures begin!
