it's here. it's now.

college is literally drawing to an end.
i can say that at this point i am feeling every emotion possible.
as i type this my heart is actually fluttering.
i feel so anxious, yet ecstatic, yet sad, yet angry, confused, passive, but nervous.
it's such an odd feeling that lately i haven't known what to do with it or how to react.
i want to feel at peace and relaxed, but i've never felt more stressed.
i want to be four years old again.
make a fort out of blankets and pillows and hide.
i want to hide deep where no one can find me.
age, the world... no one would find me.
i would just be hidden deep in my cave of comfort.
i hate feeling this way, especially since i've developed such awful habits when things are drawing to an end.
lately i've found myself getting in my car and driving until i cry at least once.
i have so many questions and i'm becoming too impatient to wait for answers.
why NOW do i realize that i have no clue what i want to do with my life?
why NOW do i realize that i have no common connections with my roommates and living here feels weird?
why NOW am i questioning love and happiness and God and existence?
it just seems so strange.
why am i writing this for the world to see, yet i find that i can't communicate it to an actual person?
this is such an odd time!
i'm not trying to sound pathetic or searching for pity... i think if you know me, you know that i'm a reasonably lighthearted happy person.
i think i'm just realizing that this age, this age that i thought would never come, is finally here...
and i need to embrace it.

aaaaand finals start now...
ready
set

go.

  1. It's been strange hearing everyone's feelings about graduating. I guess because I have 2 years left.

    I think your internship this summer will put you at ease. You'll have no reason to worry about how you have no clue what you want to do with the rest of your life. Because you'll be networking big time and you'll be doing a lot of what you love doing.
