Goodbye Extended Adolescence, aka College

I am at the finish line for graduation! But it doesn't feel like it. I am going to have to do some pretty insane amounts of work in the coming week, but next Monday, I WILL BE DONE!!! Very excited about this change in my life, and glad to be moving to the next level. To keep with that theme, I will be updating and improving this blog with a better design and concept to reflect where I am in my life right now. I'm not so lonely anymore, but I am ready. I'm not going to let things continue as they have in the past.

What I want to focus on right now is making new goals for myself, and also learning what it means to be responsible for myself and my feelings. I don't want to feel that any part of my life is hopeless or absolute; I have the power within myself to make those changes I see fit.

Mood: anxious

Random Quote:

For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again. – Benjamin Button

Response: I'm putting my strength to the test.
