Okay so I'm done. Well kind of. I mean I have some short papers to write today...that should be fun. NOT! But its beautiful outside and I just want to play and frolic in the sun. Too bad everyone has either a. left or b. not done with exams. I'm really sad that this semester is ending...its so funny to think that just last semester I was contemplating tranferring and coming back home for school. I was never really serious about that though. I was just not ready to let go. I feel the same way now. Its funny how the tables always turn. But I'm so happy that I'm so sad. lol. I just feel really lucky that I love my school and that I've made so many good friends here and found my niche and my support network. It scares me to think that I'll lose touch over the summer and not just run into people on the street and hang out. Its just such a chill environment, you never really need to call people or make plans. Not the same way at home though...always have to drive here and drive there to meet up. I don't miss my car the same way I used to. I still have no idea what I'm doing this summer. That depresses me. I wish I had some sort of plan. I just want so many things like good grades this semester, a job this summer, to be a counselor next year. All things that are just out of my reach. I do know I'll be going to Toronto for a few weeks, perhaps New York? Maybe I'll just travel and bum around. In the meantime I will reflect on what I've learned from college:
1. College is all about getting the maximum amount of knowledge by putting in the least amount of work.
2. College is all about spontaneity. Its just better when you don't plan things out and just let them happen.
3. Partying too many nights in a row only leads to dissatisfaction because one night will always be better than the other.
4. New England is cold.
5. Pictures are fun.
6. Speakers are cool. Especially Billy. He is my hero. I heart him.
7. Class should be attended. Professors should be known.
8. The library can be very social.
9. Friends can become family.
10. Life should be enjoyed. Everyday should bring a smile or a laugh (its even better if that laugh is at yourself). :)
