In a week and a half I am moving to Ann Arbor for grad school.  I am really excited for this new adventure in my life and I believe that it will lead to great things in the future.  While I am really excited, I am also really nervous.  I always freak myself about concerning major life changes.  Worrying about if I’m ready for them, if I can handle them, or if I’ll fail.

On top of that, my life seems to be taken over by money more than ever lately.  Figuring out how I will pay for rent (which I have never had to do before), how to pay for utilities and internet, how to work enough hours while going to school full time, etc.  I know that many people do this all the time and that many many people are worse off than me.  But this is also something I’ve never had to deal with before.  During college I lived in the dorms all four years and still heavily relied on my parents and for the past year I’ve been living with my parents.

To make things more stressful, I am working everyday from yesterday until next Wednesday.  While I am more than grateful for the hours and the money, it means I have less time to get everything done that needs to be.  I have barely started packing up my life (but I have done the major shopping that will be required before I move), setting up account with Comcast, making sure all my loans are squared away, and all those minor things that need to be dealt with.

So thanks for letting me complain about the things happening in my life right now.  They may seem trivial to some, but there are major major life changes for me.
