Wow! I Cannot Believe That I Am Now A Senior At College!

High school took forever to finish but college went by so fast.

I cannot believe that I am a senior at college right now. High school took forever to finish but college went by so fast. I still remember high school and my first one and half years at college. Then, the pandemic came in the spring semester of my sophomore year. I have not been to campus ever since. Right now, I am still doing online classes. Even though I am going to be a graduate student and have one more year of college, I still cannot believe that I am a senior right now.

College is so different from high school. I remember that high school took forever because I had classes five days a week from September to June. College classes were four days a week. The fall semester went from September to December and the spring semester went from January to May. High school was eight hours long while college was shorter than eight hours long.

I have not done a lot of things on campus in my first one and half years of college. I was so busy with classes. Who knew that the pandemic would happen? I wonder what the rest of my college years are like if the pandemic never happened. Whatever I have right now, I would like to enjoy my senior year as best as I can before I start the next year as a graduate student.

I feel very excited about my college graduation ceremony. I did not think about it that much until now. At least I have that to look forward to during the senior year. I wonder how my friends and classmates from high school feel about the fact that we are all seniors at college right now. The past feels so recent even though it is far away from the present.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
