Half-Way

I'm half-way done with my college career, and I'm super excited about my Junior year. There's something special about Junior year; you're half-way done, getting deep into your major/minor classes, you've made good friends, you're starting to make post-college plans (unless you're me--I've had post-college plans since I was 10), but it's not at the crunch time of needing post-college plans finalized. I'm on the downward hill. This is just so exciting.

Everyone says this, so I know how cliche it sounds, but I honestly can't believe how fast time has gone. My youngest brother went through all the lovely freshman orientation this year, and I was thinking about my time two years ago in freshman orientation. It felt so long ago, yet like time barely passed.

I have changed greatly in these past two years. My life goals have altered and become more focused. I have become more outspoken. I have made lots of different friends. I think my group of friends are eclectic, but I really like that. Why would anyone want all their friends to be exactly the same? I think only people who are afraid of everyone being unique and different. Life is boring with everyone exactly the same. I have grown academically, spiritually, and physically. I left the States for the first time. I spent a whole summer on the west coast. I had crushes which thankfully I got over. It was a fantastic two years despite not being where I wished to be.

Since another busy semester commences tomorrow, and I always miss sleep during school, I'm heading to bed to sleep without the worries of school hanging over my head.

I'm so excited I'm finally a Junior.
