Home

So I went home this weekend and needless to say it was one great weekend.  My brother's graduation party was on Friday, and I was able to see a lot of my family, friends, and family friends.  It was great to catch up and stuff my face with all the great food at the party.  On Saturday, I was able to play 9 holes at Muni and while I didn't hit the ball that well, I did make a birdie and was about a foot away from a hole-in-one.  That was followed by two more graduation parties and some chill time with friends.  Sunday featured some swimming and another graduation party.  Monday I ate breakfast with family and then headed back to Bloomington for a chill Memorial Day inside because of the stupid rain and some ultimate at night.

While it was a great weekend for all the awesome parties, I really enjoyed seeing all the important people in my life.  It really hit on Saturday that I'm not going to be home this summer so I won't see as many of my old friends as in the past.  And I also realized that I might be seeing some adult family friends for the last time in a long while or perhaps ever.  How many more times will I see my old 5th grade teacher?  Or just how many times in my life will I see those friends that I only see once or twice a year.  This weekend really made me want to make the most of the time I have on this Earth but in a smaller time span sense, I want to make the most of every situation.  I want to make the most of college, the most of my internship, the most of whatever job I have after that, the most of my marriage (hopefully), the most of everthing.
