Well, today is my last Friday of classes. One week from today, I will be home and my friends will be home. We'll be missing each other and posting on each others' Facebook walls. I have three weeks at home. I might just burst. Just last week, I tried learning everybody's name, and yesterday we became best friends. I have learned so much from my classes and from the people in my life. Broadening my horizons, friends and acquaintances showed me different things. I have had to remember my upbringing and given thanks to God so many times for the parents He gave me. I have friends with all sorts of walks of life and backgrounds, and each one has lessons to share, ways to give of themselves. People I thought I would never speak to have become favorites. Friends I thought would be there forever have fallen to the wayside, unfortunately. Still there, just not as prevalent. I've found that through the semester, I'm the same, but different.
As we start thinking about the beginning of next semester, we also have to think about the end. (Heck, I've already applied for housing next fall!) People start planning for the summer and next fall and even 2013's summer. As a college student, my life and future are coming toward me like a race car. I sometimes hope to never grow up, but I also want the adult life of making my own way. I only hope I can take each day and relish in its greatness while secretly preparing for the future.
Enjoy your day, and make it a joy for others.
