So it has been several months since I have even though about my blog. Life has been crazy and often stressful but I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. It is weird to think that my time at Lipscomb University will soon be coming to an end. I never thought my college years would go by as quickly as they have. Looking back over the three and a half years I can see how my life has changed and how I have 'grown up' in many ways. I have learned that not all of your 'friends' are really your friends but I have also learned to appreciate and cherish the ones who stayed by my side through all the ups and downs. I have learned the importance of prioritizing and studying and how they really do help after all (who would have thought)! I understand the difference between college life and college. Actually going to class and paying attention actually pays off in the long run. Befriending the teachers and spending time listening to their words of wisdom can be one of the most beneficial things you do your entire college career. My last two years I have really had to learn how to balance my social life with my academic life. For me it seemed easier to just bury myself in my schoolwork, but I soon realized that if my friends were important to me, I had to make time for them. College is about learning how to make time for the things you want to do and the things you need to do and being able to recognize the difference.
I'm not quite sure what I will do in this next stage of my life. College is definitely not the real world and, to be honest, I am a bit timid of the real world. I know that ten years from now this point in my life will not seem at all significant and I may even laugh at myself. I really do feel like things are about to change drastically and to quote one of my favorite tv shows "If there is a feeling of being half totally excited and half completely ready to panic, then that's how I feel". So now all I have to say is...Bring on the final semester!!!
God Bless
