Need to pack.....no time to do it

So I'm moving on Thursday....WOW! It has sprung on me so quickly and I'm not at all ready to leave Columbus. It has been an amazing for years. Everything that is planned for my future to this point was found here....my career, my future wife, some of my best friends....This 4 years has been soooooo fast looking back on it. I never would've imagined it would be done this quickly. Either way, life goes on. I'm just glad I've gotten the chance to make the most of it.

So back to the whole I'm moving Thursday. I am not nearly where I need to be as far as packing....especially since I'm taking all of my stuff and most of Sarah's with me. Now, you say...why haven't you packed the last couple of days. Well...I'm sitting outside at boring women's lacrosse camps all day long and staying in the dorm with them at night. Grant it....I am making a good amount of money this week which is much needed, but Wednesday evening is going to be super stressful.

Wedding plans have started to move forward. They are semi-stressful at this point in the juncture. Sarah and I have hit a few snags but we will work through them together and it will be perfect. I cannot wait for our life together. It truly can't come soon enough.

Jon and Kate

This story is so sad. While I'm tired of hearing about it everyday...I just can't help but think about those poor kids. How did their life become so painful so quickly? They just renewed their vows last season. It's amazing what being a "celebrity" can do to your life and your marriage. I pray that those kids won't be affected too much. They are still so young and impressionable I don't know how they will make it. It's just so sad.

San Antonio..Jump on it ...jump on it

So I just spent the last 5 days driving 1300 miles to San Antonio, attending the national Athletic Training conference for 3 days and driving 1300 miles back to Columbus. Talk about a long trip and about 40 hours in a car. Lucky for me, I got to do it with 5 of my good friends so it really wasn't that terrible. During the drive, we spent the night in two super sketchy motels around Little Rock and might have feared for our safety. While in SA, we got to see the Alamo, walk around the Riverwalk (which was sweet), and visit Coyote Ugly. All of this while we were attending lectures and learning sessions about our profession. I'm tired now but it was totally worth every bit of money and lack of sleep used on the trip.

Growing up all at once

Friday: Went to dinner with Sarah at a very nice restaurant right on the river with a view of the Columbus skyline. From there, went to a great concert by the Plain White T's. It was definitely a good time. Left the show and walked around Mirror Lake where I became engaged to a wonderful amazing girl. Spent the last couple hours hanging out with some of my roommates.

Saturday: Spent most of the day at pre-Commencement for Allied Med. I received my certificate that says I completed my Athletic Training curriculum.

Sunday: I spent most of the day with 8165 other graduates in Ohio Stadium listening to John Glenn give a solid commencement address. It was hot, but I got my degree. I can't believe my undergrad career is over.

Undergrad classes done....check

Just got out of my last undergraduate class ever. I was glad to be done. Not that I didn't like the class but I wish I could have ended my undergraduate career with a non-GEC class that was at 5:30 at night. Not the ideal time or class to finish up with. Oh well. Only one online exam to take on Sunday and everything is complete.

Volleyball tonight with the seniors. Then camping next week. Graduation in 2 Sundays. Then San Antonio soon after that. Then onto the next chapter in my life at the U of Mizzou.
