I can't figure out exactly where the time has gone. It seems as if the last few years of my life have flown by! I remember walking around UT with my dad a week before classes started in August of 2007 and getting these awful blisters that made having to walk everywhere, at a high rate of speed normally, on campus HORRIBLE. Fast forward, its been 3 years...I no longer get blisters from walking around campus at UT. I can walk up the Hill and only be a little out of breath. I can make it from one side of campus to the other in 15 minutes with no problem with a 35 pound backpack. I no longer get lost walking around the massive campus. I like to hang out in the library, I get more work done there. I no longer feel like an outsider in a campus of over 26,000 people. It feels natural to be there. I am a senior...finally.
I am a senior. This means that in 3 semesters (yes I am taking an extra semester to graduate), I will no longer be in the comfort of being in school...something that has become my identity over the past oh I don't know...16 years of my life. Crazy as it seems...I actually like school. I like to learn. I like the atmosphere of college. I like meeting new people and learning how to interact with differnet kinds of people on differnet levels. Call me a nerd, call me a dork, call me whatever...but I can't help it! I've always been like that.
For right now, I am taking the summer off! No summer classes! Just working as much as I can to save up for the semester when I can't work as much. The summer is one of my favorite times. Not just because of the weather and the break from school (though that is nice). I like having my friends home from college, having a little bit more time to spend with those friends and family and to make new friendships all while strengthening other friendships that already exist! Summer is a time for new things, exciting things. I can't wait to see what all I can get myself into this summer! Welcome Summer 2010...it's gonna be great! :)
I'll try to keep posting as things come about this summer! Have a great summer everyone! :)
