Everything from paying taxes to turning 21.

Wordpress

I very recently joined the 20-years-old club and have very mixed emotions. As one of the first people of my friends to turn twenty, it's kind of surreal. As my friends said, ten more years until I'm 30 and I'm also half way to 40 years old... So I have that to look forward to, but also a lot fun, unforgettable memories.

1. Turning 21.

Woo-hoo!

2. Studying abroad.


3. Graduating college.

I'll actually probably be crying.

4. Going to grad school.

The grand finale of education.

5. Paying off my college loans.

Which I'll probably be paying off for the rest of my life.

6. Getting my first full-time job.

Yay!

7. Living on my own.

Sure it will be terrifying, but it will also be great to have my own home.

8. Trying to get my life together.

The key word is trying.

9. Traveling.

10. Seeing where my friends end up.

May or may not go something like this.

11. Making my own meals.

Roman, Easy-Mac, candy and cereal all day, every day.

12. Being a responsible adult.

It definitely won't happen over night... if it does ever happen.

13. Meeting new people who get the struggles.

14. Paying taxes and rent.

15. Adopting many, many animals.

16. I will appreciate sleep even more.

17. I will learn to take care of myself.

It sure won't be easy.

18. Going to weddings!

I cannot wait!

19. High school and college reunions.

Wow, we are old.

20. Being a child at heart and avoiding adulthood.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
