Last Night In Lakeland
So this is offically my last night here in Lakeland. I will be moving on back to New Orleans tomorrow. I am very excited to be going and can't wait for the new adventures back there. I have learned a lot living here but it is time to go.

Packing
Packing is a pain. You kind of learn a lot about yourself through it though. I have been learning what is valuable and what is not. What I feel the strong need to keep and what I don't need anymore. I have so far decided that 12 sweatshirts are probably not necessary. So I am trying to condense my two years in Lakeland to a small amount of stuff and it is somewhat difficult. I am so ready to leave here and go home but I am also freaking out a little. What if home is not good either? What if it is me? You can't escape yourself and I am not sure what to do about that.
I will go resign from my current job tomorrow. That means packing up more crap. Have to pack up my classroom and get all the boxes to my apartment. It's a pain when you don't really know anyone to help you get your crap. At least at home I have people to help me unpack.

Job
I got the job I wanted today. No idea what grade level but they want me at their school and I will have a job there.
I also got an apartment. My mom went and saw it and sent me pics and I think I am going to be thrilled with it. It is right on the mardi gras parade route so that will add lots of fun!

Moving
So I have decided to leave Florida sooner than planned. I will actually be leaving before the end of the month. I can't be here any longer and not lose sanity. I will be going back home to new orleans and am very excited.
When I was home, I interviewed for two different jobs. I was offered one, a first grade position at a charter school, and the other one i should here their decision tomorrow and that is for a third grade position. ideally I would like the third grade position but we will see what happens. I am just happy I am leaving.

Scared
I have pre cancerous cells on my cervix. I am scared as all hell. I was at the doctor about a week and a half ago for a regular appointment and I just got test results today. I have to go back on Monday to get further testing. I am freaking out.
