5/1/2014 1 Comment The End of a BeginningYesterday was a rather frightening day for me. Why is that? you ask. Well. It marked the last day of classes for my freshman year of college. Never has time flown so fast as during these past two semesters. I literally remember the fear edging into me as I lay in bed the night before moving in on that fiercely hot August day, thinking tomorrow night I will be sleeping in my dorm room.... It was a scary thought, because for so long college had been just an idea, an event that was always in the future. But that night it was too close for comfort. I wanted to go, but didn't at the same time. And now it's over. I'm moving back in a few short days to being working my life away so that I can afford to come back in the fall...it's a viscous cycle... What's even more frightening is that if this year went by so fast, can you imagine how quickly my next three years here will go by? Before I know it I will be paying bills, getting a "big kid" job and, well, becoming an adult. AHH! Can't I be like Peter Pan? Never grow up and never have any real responsibilities? But, no, at the same time I am excited. I am ready to make something of myself, and work hard to get a job that I both love to do and can pay the bills. It's so close I can taste it. But if my experience with this year of college has taught me anything, it's that those days will be here before I know it. It's such a strange feeling, but not a bad one as I know there are many great things coming. I'll be in L.A. this summer, Paris in the Spring, and New York the summer following that! Oh, and I couldn't forget that cruise in November! Things are happening, but it's a bittersweet goodbye to my Freshman year of college.
