The End of the Semester

When Friday ends, an milestone will have passed. I'll have completed my first year of college, and the thought itself is an exciting one. Some much has changed this year. Friends have been made along with some pretty amazing memories. Looking back, I can't believe how worried I was during the summer before the year started.

While I admit that I could of studied more this year, and that in some respects I wish that I had, I'm happy with the grades that I've made. I could have done worse, like flunk out my first semester. But I've stuck it out and have even made the grades that I needed to keep my scholarship. I'm proud of myself and for how far I've came this year in that respect.

I'm looking forward to this summer and what it will bring. Hopefully, if all goes according to plan, I'll be moving in with April this summer in Richmond. I can see this being an awesome experience! I absolutely love April, she's such an amazing person to be around and I can see her and I being great roommates.

I still haven't gotten a job just yet, but hopefully that will all change in a few days. I've been putting in applications in like crazy. I have my fingers crossed that someone will call me back soon. It'll make moving into an apartment with April a whole lot less stressful.

I'm seeing a change in myself after this year. I believe that I've grown up exponentially, evolving into a more mature young woman. I see pauses before my actions, instead of hasty judgement that had been my curse so many times before. My words to others are often time more gentle than they would have been only a few months ago. I hope that I continue to grow in such ways.
