Finals week finally comes to a close, being that it's Thursday...finally. I've noticed throughout this entire semester I've changed in countless ways. Came in to college, stuck in my high school, materialistic, 'gotta-please-everybody-so-I-can-make-a lot-of-friends' mindset. I realized that wisdom can be attained in no time. People are convinced you need to be old to be wise; while that may be true to an extent (I agree too, don't worry) but something about my generation of teenagers, soon to be adults, just speaks pages to me. I have had the pleasure of meeting many people who share the same values that I do and actually care about my advances and successes in life. To me, that is a greater compliment/gift than anything you could purchase...besides a zip. ;-) Life is all about who you know, not always about WHAT you know. You could understand the meaning of life and the great mysteries of the Milky Way and prove that there is life beyond us, but if you have no one to take you the next step or someone to share the experiences with, what do you really have? I see life as a 'bittersweet symphony'. It's sweet through and through like a Hershey's bar but it gets old after a while. Trust me, you WILL get tired of chocolate, I'm sure of it. Everyday has its own adventure but really it's just a series of the same events...unless you make an attempt to escape the monotonous trials and tribulations of the days you live. If it seems like I'm jumping from idea to idea, I really can't help it. ADD brain function at its apex right now. Just try and take each idea as it is, maybe somehow somebody can piece it all together! Back to the grind of staring at my laptop screen and make study guides on notecards, (thanks KT) I hope whoever is reading this has a day where they can explore something new within themselves or externally because everybody needs a change up.
