whirlwind of rushing
Sometimes it is often easy to get so consumed in what is going on around you that you can't stop and take everything in. I've recently just hit a major milestone in my life and ever since, things have been a complete whirlwind. I've been so busy doing the things I have to do and things that can't wait to get done, yet no time to enjoy much of anything. Can't a girl get a break? Maybe we spend so much of our lives getting ready and preparing for our life that we don't have time in our schedules to actually live it. In the madness of this world, there has to be time for a breather of sorts. A time when we can all sit back and enjoy all the small things that this world has to offer for what they are truly worth. Appreciating life and learning to live it are not always the same thing, but we have to find the grey area between the two and embrace the beauty in everything, big or small, rich or poor, intentional or planned.

it ain't over til it's over.
Today is my last day as an undergraduate student and boy does it feel overwhelming. I am certainly ready and excited to do something new and challenging. But at the same time at this time next week I will be preparing to say goodbye to all of my professors, campus, and more importantly dear friends. There will never be another time in my life where they will all be in one central location.
The past four years have deeply changed me. I have grown and changed more with every season and semester than I can ever recall prior to this time in my life. Through dissappointment, heartbreak, joy, self discovery, and the help of many I have become the woman I am now. Things have changed greatly since I was a freshman and first walked onto the UTM campus, but yet much has stayed the same. I am still passionate about people and trying to be the best version of myself possible.
College has helped me learn more about myself and my relationships with people. I can not believe that in a little over a week I will embark on another journey that will shape me even more. Though things are overwhelming to the 90th degree, everything is so exciting it is truly hard to be upset about this whole experience.
No matter what I do and where I go, I will always remember these past four years and the mass of memories made both good and bad.
