I can't express the sense of relief I currently feel. In two hours, I will officially be done with my junior (and possibly the most difficult) year of college. That means next year will be my last. I don't know if that's exciting, intimidating, or both.
Throughout life, everyone goes through the same stages. When your in a certain position, you always look towards the future. 'I can't wait till I'm old enough to do this...', 'I can't wait till I graduate and don't have to deal with finals anymore.' The truth is, it's gone before you know it. What I'm struggling with is the fact that I will be in the working world. I won't have education and college to hide behind anymore. I may be an optimist, but it's still scary thinking about finding a career and finances and all that fun stuff.
The thing I look forward to is the possibilities. I could go into broadcasting, or producing, or writing screenplays. The world is full of endless opportunities, and as I like to say, 'when an opportunity comes knocking, open the door and let it in.'
For now, I'm looking forward to the summer. No papers, or thesis', or quizzes and exams to worry about. Instead, I get to spent the summer with the people who are most important to me, and have fun. Of course, work will be involved too, have to pay the bills somehow! It helps that I love my jobs.
Enough of my rambling. Congratulations to all the students out there who survived another year of classes.
Check back for my review on Tucker Max's 'Assholes Finish First.' (Yes, I happen to adore the guys writing!)
