Senior Year of College

As I approach the end of my undergraduate career I find myself wondering what my life will be like as a full-fledged adult. With my own place, career, and independence. After 3 full years of living in dorms and only coming home for weeks at a time, the house I grew up in feels like a hotel that I stay in during vacations from my CRAZY life at school (& I crave a stable living environment). I mean from maintaining a B average to attending all most every black fraternity/sorority party that we have......my life is pretty busy : ) I completely love being a member of what I think is the BEST sorority ever, Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority,Inc. its just brings a lot of stress, responsibility, & sometimes DRAMA. So graduating can bring about mixed emotions but mainly I am EXCITED and can't wait until I walk across that stage and they call my name. Well, that day is a while away sooooo as my summer continues to drag on, I've had a lot of time to think about life, listen to music, and just relax and I've learned quite a lot from the down time of not having a job or summer classes.

• Firstly, never be too busy that you can't rest every once and a while because you can miss a lot of the little things in life when you move too fast.
• Secondly, coming home after living on your own at college can be a humbling experience because you can easily get use to leaving and returning whenever you please. Don't let this experience bring about arguments and resentment because at the end of the day its still your parents house (something I had to learn the hard way).
• Thirdly, college is what you make of it.....I know that I didn't make this phrase up but it really stands true because when your in college it going to be a interesting experience. As you try to incorporate both healthy studying habits and fun into your life, just remember the real reason you are in college & you should be fine (hopefully to get an education & be successful is a couple of the reasons).
• Fourthly, jumping into a relationship with someone in college your freshman year may not be the best thing because both of you should be trying to find out who you are as a person and being in a relationship can hinder that, but hey what do I know.
• Lastly, try to figure out who your real friends are because they will help make your experience in college all the best.

Now that I'm done with all the deep insightful stuff I will try to add some light, fun topics......next time. Deuces
