Summer is off to a slow start

After finals week ended I was excited for a summer of sun and fun...but things have gotten off to a rocky start. My last final was a huge presentation on the Friday of exam week and I stayed up for about 2 days straight finishing it. When I was done with the presentation I was so ready to go into a coma, but I barely got a 2 hour nap in before I had to get up and be social. My roommate was graduating with her masters degree the next day so her parents were in town and we were hosting a dinner party for her family and our friends. So we had a nice dinner and drank and played Cranium, it was a successful night. I had a good time, but I was exhausted. After a night of drinking and playing games, I wanted to sleep in but I had to be up early to attend the graduation ceremony. The rest of the weekend I spent either working or hanging out with my roommate and her family, going out to eat or to the bars and graduation parties. Then my roommate, my best friend, moved to New Hampshire on her 23rd birthday, only a few days after graduating with her masters. I was sad she was gone but I didn't have to work and had the house all to myself so I slept a lot! lol.

So once I caught up on my sleep, the fun could begin! Or so I thought. Since I had run myself down so much during finals, my immune system was weak and I ended up with a horrible cold! My nose has been running and I've been coughing. I don't have a lot of energy so I've just been laying around the house when I haven't been at work. Then I discover this weird bite or something on my stomach and I have no idea what it is but it won't go away. Turns out I caught ringworm at the gym.

Then I think I've finally got something to be excited about - a cute boy that's been texting me nonstop. He finally comes over to my house to hang out and things didn't quite go as expected. It was an awkward hookup that left me very disappointed. I wish I could go back and re-do it but it's too late now. I feel like these things always happen to me too. I am cursed.
Right now I'm just hoping to get through the next few weeks. At the end of May I am going back to my hometown for my brother's high school graduation and I'll get to spend some time at the beach. Then I'll be back in Tally for a week and then I'm done with Sunglass Hut and I'm having a big party and then back to Merritt Island for a bit before I finally leave for Chicago!!!!!
I can't wait to get to Chicago! I'm just counting down the days until I leave for this internship. Hopefully I can make the best of these next few weeks and have a good time.
