3.5 Thoughts on a Friday

Here it is: my first Friday post of the semester, of my senior year at that.

1. I cannot fathom the idea that I'm a senior in college. I shouldn't be here.. it feels like yesterday was the day I started as a freshman, eyes opening to the world. Except that title belongs to my brother this year. I hope he is enjoying his first few days, it's amazing how much they really kind of set how the rest of the four years will go. I mean, depending on what things you get involved with right away, or don't get involved with, say a lot about you and direct you on the path you're to take. I haven't done a lot of "extra" activities or partying for that matter during my previous years, but I don't mind. I've enjoyed school so much, I've enjoyed learning, making new friends, trying new things, but most importantly, I've enjoyed how much I've changed and what kind of woman I'm becoming. I've always wondered if I should've applied at other schools and gone farther away, but I know without a doubt that I am meant to be here. And I know that without a doubt, where I'm supposed to go next will be revealed in time too. So, even though I have senioritus and I'm ready to be done, I'm not going to let the stress or "real world" syndrome part of that scare me out of my last year. I'm not worried about getting things done, taking the GRE, applying to a million grad schools or finding a job. I'm just going to keep moving forward day by day, doing a little bit at a time like, (slightly a different approach then what I normally take, but... that happens) and when I get that diploma, I'll head in the direction I'm supposed too.

2. The Olympics are almost over!!! I do not know how I'm going to handle that. Maybe I'm just going to have to train extra hard so I can be there in four years. I love turning on the tv at night and being able to leave it on one channel where I can watch or just listen. I suppose I'll end up finding something else to bide my time I think "The Biggest Loser" is starting again.... although, I am working several nights at the new job.

3. Which I LOVE! The gym is great... it's just a good atmosphere to be in and when I'm in the freshman one, it's pretty quiet at night so I get plenty of homework done.

3.5 Hmmm.... I thought I had some more things going on in my brain, but surprisingly, this is it! I'm just ready to start the day and see what happens.

Have a great Friday/weekend everyone!
