This morning I woke up and a major revelation hit me like a ton of bricks: I have one semester left until I graduate. By the end of this year, I will no longer be a "student" anymore, I'm going to be an actual adult.
Its a scary thought and too many thoughts scattered around my head. Will I get to see my college friends after graduation? How am I going to get a job? How can I be a functioning adult in a few months when I'm still kind of afraid of the dark?
After the anxiety of realizing I'm growing up went down, I realized how ready I actually was to start my life as a post-grad. College was fun. I have met people that I will surely remember for the rest of my life, but I am also ready for a new self-adventure. I'm ready to explore the rest of the world and to live the rest of my life.
There will be things that I won't miss so much from college, like 8 a.m. classes, crappy campus food and the copious amounts of homework that come with taking 18 credits a semester. However, I will always remember going out on Friday nights with my best friends. I'll never forget decorating my first apartment. And I will truly miss walking around campus during the Farmer's Markets on every Thursday.
College is an experience I will never forget. I'm more than thankful for the people I have met and the adventures I went through during my time here. There are many life lessons that I will remember forever that were taught to me both inside and outside of my classes every day. Going to college has made me grow into a person who is ready to take life by the horns. I'm going to try my best to treasure the last few moments I have in college and cherish every amazing memory made by my equally amazing friends here.
