I have heard it said that there is a moment in your college experience when it hits you that you have become that stereotypical college student. I remember mine was the spring semester of my sophomore year. I was at my work study, which is a job on campus, and I had not had time to go to lunch that day. I just had too many classes and errands to run that morning/afternoon. So I was eating my lunch while at work out of a thermos. It was ramen noodles. I remember having it hit me while sitting there that oh my gosh, I really was a college student. I mean here I am eating ramen noodles out of a thermos, at work, all because classes and being an adult that day prevented me from being able to go to lunch. I just laughed a little at myself and at the thought of it all.

I've been having a lot of moments hitting me this year. Which makes since that it is my last year and all. Like the fact that this will be the last time that I have to register for classes. I never have to fill out housing forms again. I just went to my last Halloween dance at the school. I know that as time until graduation continues to decrease, the number of these moments is just going to skyrocket. It is such a bitter sweet moment. I am definitely not going to miss registration, papers, 8 am classes, or finals. However, it does really make me sad that I won't be around my friends from here really anymore, or that these are the last events on campus I will go to. With everything though, I am still so excited to graduate and get out into the world and see what other aha moments I am going to have.
