Spring Break

I am officially on Spring Break. Many college students have made elaborate plans for this week long respite from college. For some reason I chose to do more work. My parents are making plans to sell the house in Cape so I have been landscaping for the past few days and will continue to do so until break is over. In addition I can't resist studying for my analytical chemistry test next Wednesday. Throw in an independent research project, an ongoing summer job search, training for a marathon and I find that this hardly feels like a break at all. Maybe I should have gone to Florida.......

Florida aside, I'm looking forward to getting a job away from home this summer (wherever that may be). I'm fairly certain that this "new home" will feel nothing like home at all, which is part of the reason that I have applied to locations such as Hawaii and California. I look forward to the time when I can truly escape my books/new house/people I know and meet new people who know nothing of me. I can't wait for the REAL break to begin.
