My sophomore year of college is coming to an end and I am having feelings and emotions from every angle.

Sitting in this final week of classes, I am wondering how this semester has gone by so fast. I look back on these past two years and realize how much has changed. I have made such a close group of friends and have found so much comfort. I have grown and expanded upon the things that I am passionate about and I am forever thankful for that.

This time last year, I was finishing up my freshman year and planning to go home for the summer. Now I am settled in an apartment with a job and plans of staying in Charleston. I am approaching my junior year and I am trying to sort out all of the changes that are coming with it.

I know the time is only going to keep flying by, and I cannot help but ponder about all the things I will face after college. It is so exciting to not know where the next two year will take me however, it is also terrifying that I am so unsure about so many future plans.

Will all this being said, I am trying to settle and somewhat enjoy the mystery of it all. This is a little easier said than done, but there are just so many things that I cannot control quite yet. College has been such a rollercoaster ride these past two years and I know it will continue to feel that way.

Approaching my junior year has made me realize just how fast this entire college experience is going to be. I want to spend the next two years taking advantage of every opportunity and spending quality time with my amazing friends. In just a few years, so much is going to change and I want to make the remaining experience the best it can be.
