Well now I really am "Just Jo."

A newly-single mind is certainly an unsteady one, but I can feel myself getting more and more focused on the task at hand: happiness. Was my breakup the ideal situation? No, absolutely not. Something this distracting just before finals is never ideal, but I'm beginning to put it in perspective. Maybe it's for the best. I love him, but I wasn't happy and that was making him unhappy. Maybe it's not the right time for us. Maybe we'll still be friends. Maybe we'll never speak again (I hope that's not the case). He has been a large part of my experience in college thus far and we had our high points, but I think I need to have my time to shine and experience college life on my own, and maybe we can try again later. Being alone for the summer will be rough, but I'll need to make sure I keep myself busy and have fun with friends. And stay in shape and play lots of soccer. One thing is for certain: we're both going to be okay.
