Last post of March

It's true. It's already March 31st. Why is today significant? Many reasons. Probably for reasons that I won't remember in a year's time. Kissing? Warmth? Movies? Love? It's funny that what happens in our lives stays with us for such a short time. I have a friend who just doesn't remember some of the most important moments he's experienced. It's bizarre. I sit on the other side of that fence. I remember it all. Good words, bad words, crying, smiling, sunny days, thunderstorms, etc. And then it becomes the question.... which one is better? Is it better to live in the moment and not remember it later, or have it stuck with you forever to haunt you in either a good way or bad? I think I like having a good memory. I like to remember the smells of things and the music that was playing and that moment that may or may not change the rest of my life.

Like lets describe today. I was outside. The sun shone viciously upon me and my friend. It was windy. Windy enough to irk me a little bit. I love the feeling of wind blowing through my hair, but it was just too much. But it was warm and so the wind was zoned out. Then there was the talk. It was a pretty long talk. We were leaning on a car, watching the garbage man drive by and a dozen of Bethel kids driving way too fast on a road that musta been only 20 MPH. We talked of pride. We talked about love. We talked about uncertainty. We talked of the most honest things in our life. Yet nothing was discussed. For the present time, nothing was discussed.

While that may seem somewhat meaningful, especially when you add in details, it'll lose all meaning in a matter of weeks. That's something I am always curious about. When are these "defining" moments we all talk about? We are so busy trying to push through this class or that job interview or whatever else, that we seem to miss the little things. As usual. This is all random and not a big deal. But it's late and I thought I'd throw something at you guys.

Today is also the day I received all of my graduation information. :) Yes! That's right, this Super Senior is seeing the light at the end of the tunnel! Sorta anyway. I still have to find an internship, and I have to take a course worth 3 credits. But they can be from anywhere which is nice. But it's funny to know that I've been writing this blog for FIVE YEARS and soon the title just won't work if it still says College Life. College will be over. What do I change the title to? Any suggestions? I'm sure I'll come up with something clever. OR I could say, Amy's Post College Life... and put year six even though it wouldn't make sense with the new title. But I really don't want to start back at one. I won't know how to track where I've been! Haha. Oh the details make everything. AT ANY RATE... I graduate in less than two months. Go me! I've arrived!

The downfall is that senioritis is back. Boo. It's bad. I need to actually go to my classes before they fail me! EEK! It's just that life happens and I can't predict it and I can't time it out according to my classes. Oye. Whatever... as long as I pass I guess it doesn't really matter now does it? If I fail I guess I don't graduate. What pressure! But at the same time it doesn't cause me to feel stress.

Alright, I'm rambling. And I'm tired. So I'm out. Enjoy this wonderfully glorious and happy week!

Amy
