Yesterday, April 2nd, I finally got off probation. It was such a freeing moment. I feel like I have regained my life. It was such a weight on my shoulders just knowing that my name was in a government database because I had screwed up one time. I payed for it, and I learned my lesson.
The timing is perfect, too. It's almost summer, the weather is warming up, I have good friends, and I love where I live.
This time last year I was absolutely miserable. I was dreading the day when school ended and I had to go back to my hometown to live and work for the summer. This year, I have a cute townhouse with two friends (and one other roommate that no one likes), a great social life and support system, and a job prospect. I am so excited for school to end because I will actually be able to enjoy my summer vacation.
I'm longing for the days when my boyfriend and friends can load up someone's car and go to the beach and drink iced tea and play in the water.
I feel like I have a new lease on life. I am ready to finally enjoy myself.
