You know you're obsessed with school when...

you're conflicted about taking a few days off during spring break. My family asked me to spend this week with them because in a couple of weeks my parents are moving. My first thought was, "Oh, no. I'll never get anything done down there."

I'm pretty disgusted with myself for thinking that. Actually, I'm laughing pretty hard at myself now. I hope you are laughing, too (rather than shaking your head and telling me I need professional help).

I've gotten over myself and now I'm excited about seeing my family and dreadfully sad that my parents are moving. I can't believe they are moving. Wait, they move all the time, why should it surprise me this time?
