When life turns around and upside down

I'm moved into my "new" room for the summer. It's not really new though because it's the room that 3 of my friends lived in during spring quarter. It's only been 9 days since I finished junior year and 4 days since I moved into the room, but it seems like it's been forever. Things are pretty different, not a bad different, just simply different.

Lifestyles. No classes. "Work." Everyone doing their thang. Trying to find food. Cooking has become more of a possibility (attempt?). Watching TV (never watched TV before this). WORLD CUP. Weather's been progressively getting colder. New people moving in the house that I lived in during the quarter. Sitting in the living room. Free time.

It's an interesting transition, especially that it's taking place in essentially the same geographical place. It's one thing when you transition into the next chapter in a different place (i.e. different city, different dorm room/house, etc.), but it's another thing to do the transition in a place that's literally right next door to where you just were. It's even weirder when you see people moving in, living and hanging out in the place where you and your friends created so many memories.

It's a new chapter in my life, transitioning into my summer in Cape Town, even though where I am it's technically winter…
