First Post!

So I’m sitting here, enjoying my delectable McFlurry at 12:41 pm (FRESHMAN 15 ALERT ALERT) thinking about how in 5 weeks my whole live will change. I mean, everybody says that but when it comes down to the wire like this and it’s truly about to happen, a lot of things smack you right in the face. My bed, my room, my family, my friends will soon no longer is so simply accessible. We’re all told to part with the old and embrace what’s to come and not cry because it’s over, smile because it happen but it’s really difficult when it’s happening to you. I’m sure there are a thousand wonderful things awaiting me…actually, I’m positive there are but leaving, saying goodbye is a lot harder than I thought it would be. I said all through out high school, “I hate this, I hate that, I can’t wait to leave” and now that I am leaving, I regret it. I wish I appreciated everything more, I wish I was more involved, I wish I gave things a chance. Now, the fact that I get to start over in this new place, I can’t wait to love every single minute of it.

 

You learn from your mistakes and high school was full of mistakes for me and I'm sure college will have its fair share too but I' learned to be who I am and not change myself to fit in, which was a problem of mine in high school. I didn’t love what I was doing because it wasn’t me doing it; it was a façade I had created to fit in. But now, I’m all Mia, all the time and I can’t wait for Mia to start enjoying herself as much as possible. There are so many things I want to do and try just because I can. Clichés were meant for blog topics like this because what is to come in the future is so bright, it’s taunting me. I can see it, but I can’t touch it just yet.

 

So the plan from here on out is to immerse myself in what is left of here. Dream of what is to come and attempt to stay as literate as possible this summer so I don’t flunk out come the fall. Deal? Deal.
