I feel suspiciously at peace with the fact that this Sunday I will be leaving my undergraduate career behind me and moving on to more interesting lands and unfamiliar company. It feels as though I just came to this university yesterday;all of a sudden it is coming to a close and I am okay with that. Last week I was, not exactly plagued with a very bizarre feeling, but experienced a stirring. There is a mixture of anticipation, dread, and excitement. All of a sudden it's become quite clear that at this point I have this world wide open to me. I am not being chained to one place because of higher education. The feeling of being unburdened for the first time is confusing, amazing, but confusing. I love being free which is why I loved summer breaks so much. They hold the potential and promises of adventures and tales that will be told. But I always new that I would have to go back to my education. However, even though I know I am going to graduate school it is still over eight months away. Leaving me with the most free time I have ever had.
I know that I will be filling some of that time with an Internship at Disney World but still, it is Disney World and, from what I have been told, will hold nothing but good experiences. After that I am hoping to go to Albania for a couple weeks and I may volunteer at a summer camp that I worked at for the last couple summers. I need to spend some time just being nowhere. I love the feeling of being in the woods or near the ocean and the upcoming months of my life seem to be the perfect opportunity for such wanderings.
