One thing that has taken some time to adjust from high school to college is the amount of schooling you get in a single semester. I high school even though you would have Christmas break that would be the half way point, in college the light at the end of the tunnel is SPRING BREAK! While it seems that every single student here on campus is packing their bathing suits and heading to a beach for the week, I will be staying here on campus and working. I am in no way complaining, it would just be nice to have a break longer than two days.
Something that has also taken time to adjust to is how much faster time seems to go. In high school a school year seemed like a lifetime; whereas in college a school year seems to be measured in the blink of an eye. It simply blows my mind that I am almost done with my second year of school. It is also strange to me that I am that much closure to being in "adult world". While I am excited to be growing up I am also sad to seem some very good friends go. This year will be very hard, I have so many senior friends that will be moving on! This summer will be good to plan so last visits before they start their grown up jobs, and some weddings to say good bye to some amazing people. I am sure that I will see them again, but when is the real question.
While all these thoughts are running through my head, and time continues to tick; I also think about how much I have changed in the 2 years I have been here at Bluffton University. I am a little taller, gained weight, older and altogether more awesome. I am not afraid to try new things or meet new people. I also know what it means to be focused and to put everything that I have into my work. I can't wait to see how I will change in the next two years!
