Fearless...


It's been a while since I've written a post. Just a small update to catch you up on my life...
1. I'm a senior now.
2. Just blew out 21 candles a few weeks ago.
3. My thesis is swallowing me.
4. And corn is lifting my spirits up.

That was just a quick snapshot of things that are happening. I absolutely can not believe that I am a senior now. It is so unreal. And I'm still trying to figure out where the last three years went. Honestly, it's all a blur to me. I've been through so much as a college student and as a person. I've learned so much; and I still feel like I have so much more learning to do. A lot of times people just don't know how much is really hiding behind that smile of mine. I don't know where I would be without Jesus, my family, my boyfriend, and my friends. Ok, ok, enough of that before I have a meltdown...

On to the fun stuff... the first semester of my senior year is already halfway done! I've celebrated my twenty-first birthday, passed a psychology exit exam, danced with my daddy at Senior Parent Night, and practiced many Cornhuskin dances with one of my best friends. I'm also in the midst of trying to decide whether I will spend my next year in graduate studies or begin the journey of an ESL teacher. Both choices are absolutely wonderful and I honestly do not know what I will do. I mean....should I pick the master's degree or teach sweet little ESL students and then go after my master's? Ahhh! Now I see why seniors hate the question, "So, what are your plans after graduation?". PLEASE don't ask me...because I just might throw up on you. Whatever I decide to do, I 'm going to take it under my wings and fly fearlessly with it!

In the middle of taking care of my academic life, I've also been trying to take advantage of every moment possible to hang out with my friends and have fun. I mean...did I mention that it was my LAST year as an undergrad?! :) I've shared tons of laughs and memories with some fabulous folks. I really just want this year to slow down just a bit. I'm having way too much fun and I don't want it to ever end. Where is the rewind button when you need it?
