Off To College!

Hey hey look who's back! It's me. I wanted to make a hat for myself that I liked and would wear in public before I left for college (the day after tomorrow! ah what.) I think I accomplished that goal, but I have conflicted feelings. I like and and I don't. I think the brim is kinda too big for the rest of the hat maybe? I used my normal sized (size 8 I think) circular needles. I love them! I like these ones better than my bigger ones because the big ones are very slippy and the needle part is always coming off of the circle part. Anyway tomorrow is my last day before I leave for college! I am leaving for a new student trip that's a week before orientation. I will spend a week with strangers with no phone and no access to people I know. I am so stressed. I have a lot of stuff to do tomorrow oy oy. I have to read a 10 page article and finish packing. Oy oy. I probably have other things to do other than those as well because I keep having more and more to do. Oy oy. I am very stressed about this whole college thing, but right now in this moment I feel calm about leaving. Except maybe I'm just repressing this. I probably am. I am very scared about my life changing in such a big way and having to be in an uncomfortable place in my life for a long time with so many new things and having to make friends and having to be social. I DON'T WANT TO WORRY ABOUT BEING SOCIAL I HATE HAVING SOCIAL ANXIETY. Please be gone social anxiety! I feel like a panic attack is up and coming! Fun times. Oy oy. My family and I went out to dinner today and then watched a bunch of home videos. It was really nice. It came up so fast and I feel like I didn't have enough time to do fun stuff because of work and I just had a ton of stuff to do for college. Oy maybe I should have taken advantage of my free time. Oy oy. Oh how time flies. Am I right, folks?

I'm Not Exciting

I made a hat. I made it really quickly with my big circular needles and green yarn. I wanted to make a hat for myself in order to get back into the swing of knitting. (I MISSED IT!) I've just been so busy so I stopped knitting for awhile. Anyway I made this hat and I don't love it. I think it's fine? Idk. I gave it to my sister. It's very stretchy and loose-y goose-y. Sorry for all these boring posts. I'll post a more exciting one for the next post. Hopefully. Here's a bunch of pictures of me:
