Hello dear reader,
It has been a while.
I've been
feeling different recently. Yes, different is the word. The subtle but
eye-opening realization that half of my college life is over has dawned upon me
and I do not like it.
When I
started college I'd hoped that at the end, I'd have varied experiences, an
ocean of wisdom and lots of great advice to offer. I'm half way there, but I
could not be farther from my expectations. In many ways, I'm still the same
lost kid I was on the first day.
But yes,
in small (but important) ways I think (and this is just my opinion) that I've
grown. It is a rewarding experience, but to think that half of it is over is,
in a word, disheartening.
Along the
way I've met some wonderful people (you know who you are :)) and I think that
the opportunity to chance upon such people, people who helped me become better,
will diminish when these 4 years will be over and that is something I'm not
happy about.
However,
I am optimistic that life will surprise me as it often has.
So after
all the mulling, I hope that there is still hope and the two years to come will
be equally, if not more rewarding as the ones that have passed.
Shine on!
