Time is Almost Out!

As my first and thrid year of college rapidly comes to a close, I cant help but wonder where I will be at this same time next year. I really love this school. Ive never loved any one place so much as I love it here. No matter what horrible "wrongs" could be going on in my life, just one look around the campus has made me realize how truley lucky I am. As move out day inches closer and closer, I start to think about that very first day I moved in to my ltttle room. I remeber my mom was crying and I was so terrified. I didnt know if I wanted to be here, it was all so overwhelming. I had no idea what was in store for me then, but I knew it would be great, and I was right. As I unpacked all of the contents of my life thus far and began to fill up my small section of the room with them, I wondered how much I would have changed when it came to packing them back up again. I wonded how much would be added to my collecetion of things to take back with me to the place where I came from not even a year ago.

I will miss this little room so much. It just wont be the same next year. I have had so much fun and so much has happened in this room. There has been dance parties, I Love Lucy puzzles, Disney sing alongs, pre-parties, first kisses, stolen posters, long talks, and all of it has been so wonderful. This one year has really been souch a long journey for me. I will never forget a moment of any of it. There is no possible way to capture its meaning in words, its something I will take with me forever. This one year has added yet another peice to the puzzle of my life.

I wonder where well all end up. I wonder if I will ever see many of the people I have met here ever again. A big part of life is moving on, changing, and growing up. I hope that I do alright in this world. Im only one year closer to being pushed right into it, and it can be cruel, and hard, and I may fail before I succeed, but I think i am almost ready for it now. I think this year has taught me so much and I am almost ready to get out there and do wonderful things. I have lived, I have loved, and I have learned so much. How could life possibly get any better? It can, and I just cant wait to find out how...

If Ive only learned one thing, its been to enjoy my youth. It comes and goes so fast it makes me want to cry when I think of how far away I will be from it soon. Youth is such a fleeting thing. I hope I havent wasted mine completley...
