Funky Town get down! This past weekend was a very bittersweet weekend for me. I went back to Fort Worth to sing at Pi Phi rush and see all my friends along the way. Every time I go back to Fort Worth it is just a very strange and surreal feeing. It's like I never left...but at the same time I don't live there anymore. It is really kind of confusing actually. I normally go back and stay with my old roommates in my old house, except there is someone new in my room and it certainly doesn't look like my chaotic hippie room did before. Actually, the house looks a lot better since I left...haha, maybe I should have left a long time ago. hahaha. (There is still a broken window from me throwing a tennis ball too hard once...oops. I put some duct tape on it....all better!). Anyways, the point is that it is just flat out weird.
I was soooo glad that I was able to go back this past weekend and finish my last rush with my pledge class that I started with at TCU. It was emotional to see everyone crying together and realizing that this is our last rush together (a very good thing and hallelujah moment, but sad at the same time). As I was singing the words to my song "I Love You" all I could do was look at my friends and feel how much I appreciate each and every one of them. Especially when I sang the line, "you're the only one who gets my jokes". It's true! Not many people get my humor I think....quite unfortunate if you ask me. Long story short, I am so thankful that I was able to go back and be with everyone for this moment. It meant a lot to me and I will treasure it forever.
Overall, my weekend in Funky Town was absolutely incredible in so many different ways. I love my friends and no one will ever take the place of them. But now marks a whole new journey for me. I start school in 5 days! Yikes! But I could not be more excited to get going, get a set schedule, and meet new people! The hardest part about this summer has been not having friends...well, I'm ready to make some dang it! Tomorrow I am going to Pi Phi workshops for rush and it will be the weirdest feeling to be at a different chapter. It will be new and exciting, but very strange. I'm hoping that I will meet some awesome friends there and maybe...just maybe there will be a few that are as big of a dork as I am (doubtful...but I can dream. haha).
I still believe in my heart that this move will be a good thing for me and that I did make the right choice. I am big believer that things do happen for a reason and if I wasn't supposed to be doing this than it wouldn't have happened. There are a lot of blessings in disguise about this move and I am excited to see what they are and how they develop over time.
