The End of An Era

Well. I really have been putting this off, since it is the last hoorah, the grand finale, the final post, the end of an era if you will...

Freshman year is over, and honestly I do not like that one bit! Obviously, I'm glad exams are over and I'm glad the stress of the year is over, but I feel like I just moved in!! I was just getting used to living in the attic, the hall baths, the laundry, the library, mastering the art of just how late I can sleep in to still make it to class on time. All these things have become a part of a routine I've gotten into. More than that, though, I've gotten used to being around some of the best people ever! I'm going to miss being able to walk maybe 10 steps to go see Blythe. I'm going to miss being within about 2 minutes of all my friends! It is going to be very strange being without all these people and things I've grown accustomed to over the past 9ish months!

So to stray from the sentimental side, I'll tell you how the year ended up and what to expect in the weeks and months to come...

I survived exam week oh-10. Barely, but I did. I stayed up one too many times within the last two weeks of school, and I spent a whole day in tears (I'd say because of the lack of sleep and my ever present trait of procrastination). I lost it in the middle of my chemistry exam. That was attractive and I'm sure uncomfortable to those in the room with me. Similar situation to the girl who was behind me when I feel in front of Springs? I think so. Anyway.

Biology. I honestly don't think I am a biology major anymore. I think I've realized I was more attracted to the title of "Dr." than I was to the actual schooling and commitment it takes to earn it. Of course, I'm not completely giving up on the idea, but I am actively seeking other alternatives. Religion major? Maybe. Still a biology major? More than likely, nope.

As you readers may or may not know, I enjoy a good excursion during exam week. Last semester it was a trip to see Christmas lights. This semester... a trip to Greenville to get my cartilage pierced. I took Anna with me, therefore, some of the blame can be placed on her. My reasoning is threefold:

1. I'm going to be a camp counselor this summer. This is going to greatly help my image.

2. I kind of feel like I'm going through a midlife crisis, but at a much earlier age... old men get new cars, I get a new piercing.

3. I'm a freshman in college, this will probably come out come senior year when it is time to look for a job.

So. Exam week vs. Sarah. It was a close fight at times, but I think I ended up on top.

So what's coming up in the future?

I leave for camp in 2ish weeks. I will be without much technology, so blogging will take a back burner. Just kidding! Of course I can't let these experiences go untold, so I'm starting a new blog!! How exactly I'm going to manage the blogging is still up in the air. It will happen though, don't you worry! I'll post the link to my new blog on here and on my facebook once it's up and running.

I hate to end this post, because with it kind of officially marks the end to my freshman year. It's been fun! I know I've enjoyed myself! There's more to come... more weird situations, more funny stories, three more years at PC. (I'm saying all of this more as assurance for myself, not so much for yall)

One down. Three to go.

Peace and Love.
