I am officially done with finals - I'm a senior in college.
:D that feels good to say.
I started this year with so many apprehensions, I was planning a wedding, I was really unhappy in my major, I felt like I was being told I was an adult but I didn't feel like an adult yet, I had a major crisis of faith, I was unsure where some of my friendships were going... everything seemed up in the air.
Now I feel more grounded. I'm an adult now, through and through. I have successfully planned a wedding that I know will be the best day of my life, I have a much better relationship with my parents than I've ever had, and a much closer relationship with both of my siblings, I have found that questioning religion does not mean you lose faith, and that finding yourself involves taking risks and sometimes failing. I learned that just because I can't be an A+++ student in Integrative Physiology doesn't mean I'm stupid, it just means that I'm not the right candidate and that when I enjoy a psychology class much more than any class I've taken in my major then that just might mean something. And most of all I've learned it's ok to be wrong, to not be perfect, but that "faking it" as I've done for most of my life just doesn't work.
Dustin is soon to have a job! Yay and props for him!
