As I get ready to start my final year of college, I've started to look back on my life. I can't believe I'm 22 years old. I still feel like I'm 16, not to mention, look it.
I remember when I started college, I was such a shy and quiet girl. I was the girl who had never drank, smoked, done drugs, or had sex. I had no intentions of doing those things either. My whole goal was simply to graduate.
I have to laugh at how much I've changed. And it's not at all a bad thing that I have changed. It was probably better that way. I mean now I'm a much more outspoken, happy person. I have the best damn friends in the world, and I'm about to be a college graduate. That just boggles my mind!
No one in my family has gone to college. They all got married and had kids right after high school. But not me. Sometimes I think it's good I chose another path. Other times I feel like I'm way over my head. Sometimes I don't feel smart enough to be in college, ya know?
At times I wish I just got married right of high school and started my life right away. But I look at my friends from high school....more than one of them is a pot head. One is a mother of two and married for 2 years now. It makes me feel like I haven't accomplished anything yet.
Thought I'm not gonna lie, I much rather be playing beer pong and doing shots than taking care of a child and a husband. I kinda don't wanna ever be that person that settles in the suburbs, has 2.5 kids and drives them all to soccer. I want to do something more. But I'm not exactly sure what that is. I just hope that I can find someone that makes me happy and feels the same way I do about life.
But in the meantime, I have a degree to complete and many many nights of drinking to partake in.
