I am so relieved I got through my first year of college without any major problems. I am so ready for summer vacation and to have a long-deserved break from school. One thing I am most excited for is to be able to catch up with so many people I couldn’t during the school year. I missed all of my family and friends back home and hope we can hang out lot over this break.
There is so much I want to do during this little time frame. I hope I can do most if not all of it. I have never been a warm-weather type of person. I prefer colder weather where you can bundle up and wear boots. But summertime is always a good time no matter the weather. Theirs just something about summertime activities that you can’t do in any other season. For example you can swim in other season, an inside pool or outside pool. But for some reason swimming during the summer time is just automatically way better.
My plan for the summer is to go back home and work a summer job and earn money for the next school year. I know what to expect in my second year and I’m going to be much more prepared! I am getting to know a better spending habit, with lots of trial and error. And I know what I can do to improve myself for next year. I want to be able to be prepared for what there is to come later in my life and the only way I can get experience for it is now. And the things I don’t learn now, I will have to learn as I go.
Looking towards my future is very intimidating. I am going to be graduating in 2025, Its crazy how close that is. I am actually out on my own and working a real full-time job with a degree I worked for. I never thought I could ever get to this point in my life and it’s crazy how fast time can fly. I have always been a dependent person in my life, but never this much. Thinking about what I will have to do and prepare for my future puts a lot of stress on my shoulders. I don’t know if everyone else ever though this way when they were my age but its so crazy to think about. Thinking of getting a solid job that will support me financially, getting my own place to live, and were I even want to live. Its a lot to take in.
