I am twenty years old.
I am a junior in college.
& this past week it hit me how old I am.
not necessarily my age but how my whole world is going to be totally rocked in just a little over a year.
I am about to register for my second semester of junior year. As I was looking through my degree works, I saw I only need 39 more hours until i graduate. Uhm, that’s like nothing. It honestly scared the junk out of me. In three short semester, I will be a college graduate, that’s basically just a year and a half. A year and half left of actually being a kid. I am not mentally prepared to be a real adult.
Like I am expected to get a job.
like a real job, not a waitress, not a nanny like a career.
That’s crazy.
College has been flying by.
I still feel like my parents just dropped me off for my freshman year.
I still cry and tear up when they come visit me and leave.
If anyone knows how can I can just do college forever hmu.
bc I refuse to grow up. It sounds awful.
So, in the time I have left at Clemson my roommates and I have decided we are going to really do college. (bc we are are all grandmas and go to sleep super early and study all the time)
