One of my sisters posted this in her LJ and I couldn't help but respond:
"I just want to make good money, get my own place, and get my shit together. Live out my own life.
I can't wait to get out into the real world."

(My response:)
That's what I thought. lol
And now I'm not so sure.
I studied accounting because I had no idea what I wanted to do with myself but I thought "all i want to do is make money. and have my own place. i can't wait to get out into the real world."
And now i'm scared that i'm not even going to want anything to do with accounting and i got that damn degree for nothing. I'm scared that auditing is not going to make me happy no matter how amazing the pay is. Because it was never anything i was passionate about - i just knew it was going to make me money.
I mean, hopefully it does make me happy but who knows. But anyway you will totally miss college when it's over. There's just something amazing about the environment and being young and having fun. I look back now and there is so much more i wish i would have done with those 4 years.
I heard this song by trace adkins called "you're gonna miss this" and it damn near had me on the floor crying. It got me so sad. It talks about how when you're young all you do is dream about the future and all the big things you can't wait to do but little do you know when you get there you are going to turn around and wish you were still back in your younger days. It's so true. I think that's the song i want to dance to with my daddy when i get married. You should give it a listen.
Sorry for typing a novel!
Love you!
