I seriously just started sobbing in the SLC. I don’t even know why really. I was just casually walking through the line at Jitt Joe’s, and BOOM. Tears. It’s my first day; I actually reminded myself that I am now a junior in college…. halfway done and halfway not done.

What does that even mean?

Anyways, I can not seem to get myself together and grasp the idea of this whole thing society wants me to do. Society wants me to graduate and grow up, but do you know what I have to give up to do that? Too much is the answer. Too much.

I can’t just randomly get out of bed from my four hour slumber (naptime) and decide to go out in a t-shirt and norts. Nope, that is no longer acceptable. I would have to put on some sort of casual clothes and drink expensive wine, but who wants to do that? I just can’t fathom it.

Or they want me to stop ordering Papa John’s on cyber Tuesday and expect me not to go through the Chick-fil-A drive thru eight times a week. I CAN NO DO THAT, SOCIETY. I just can’t.

So why in the world am I even writing this entry? Oh, because I want all of you who are going through the same confusion of being “halfway done” to understand we are nowhere near done.

We still have so much left to do. We get to have our own place in a city where we have a job that allows us to go do all those fun things we do now more comfortably. Isn’t that a bit exciting? (It is)

So why am I freaking out? I love UGA. I love all the opportunities I have here. I love the city itself. All the restaurants, the bars, the hang-outs – I love it all. I don’t want to leave, and I don’t want anyone to expect me to.

I’ll probably just stay here another 2-3 years. Maybe just decide to dabble in law for a bit or something like that. Who even really knows.

All I know is I love Athens, Georgia and I don’t want to admit that I am a junior. So, cheers to pretending I am a freshman for another two years….. and then some.

XOXO
