My late morning coffees and reading on the porch till noon are officially over. It's back to school for all the teachers and kiddos in Wilmington. Although I can't help but secretly love this time of year. It brings back some nostalgic thoughts of my childhood - back to school shopping. I will forever treasure those excursions where I would beg my mom for the coolest neon pens all the while imagining what cool notes they would make to my friends and how I would pass them in class. Then came the outfits. Oh the outfits. With my mom's assistance I would undoubtedly have the first two weeks of outfits picked out to the tee (to increase sleeping time duh), and played with my hair until I knew exactly what I wanted it to do. Back to school symbolizes a fresh start. A new beginning. New teachers that aren't annoyed with you yet. New experiences to share with your best friends. I think that is why I love this time so much. Sure, now I'm not in school, in fact I'm on the other side of it, but it still brings hope. Hope for a great year and a fresh dedication to hard work. I don't know about you but I never refer to time by the calendar year or formal seasons. No. I will always think in semesters, spring breaks and summer vacations. So here's to my new beginning... and it's back to school for me.
