I don't wanna be the last one home. . .
So I'm feeling super reflective as of right now. I just went for a bike ride around the lovely streets of Fredonia and I don't know if anyone has ever gone for a bike ride just to ride, but it does wonders on your head. I threw on the Ipod and just rode and listened and it was great, but like I said it got me thinking about things. This week really kicked me in the face in terms of where I'm at in my life. I have this year of college, next year, then hopefully I'll be a graduate. a.k.a. in the real world. Now, not so obviously, I'm going to do some graduate level English Ed work so that I can get my masters, but either way college, by no means, is winding down but it isn't slowing up either. I remember my junior and senior years of high school like it was yesterday. I remember thinking about how college was going to be and how envious I was of everyone who was more grown up than I was. And I'm here now, living it, and I don't want to miss out on anything. I'm finally doing well with all my classes and I've found my niche so to say and Jena and I are doing wonderful, our 6 month anniversary is tomorrow, the only thing that I feel is lacking thus far are my relationships with everyone else. Jena has really become my best friend here, beyond my girlfriend. At the same time though I feel like I need ot find more time with the guys. It's like I'm not even necesarrily "one of the guys." Obviously I live here and obviously it's always fun when they're around, but besides the meaningless "how was your days" There really is no talking. I have no idea what's going on in any of their lives. I guess it's just such a transition from last year. The guys and girls were both in such close quarters that we couldn't help but talk ALL THE TIME. Call me a weirdo, but I like that I like seeing and hearing how everyone is doing and what's going on with everyone. I don't know I guess I'm rambleing. I just don't want to miss out on a situation that I really will never get back. I feel like so many people reflect on college as being this amazing time that they will never forget, but for me not that I am not enjoying myself because I REALLY am. I just feel like there's a lot more that I coudl be experiencing that I'm not simply because it's easy to just be lazy and sit around or make sure I'm getting everything done. I don't know, hope everyone's doing great. I'll be seeing y'all around.
