My Grand Adventure

The final days of the semester are counting down. I suppose they are always counting down but I am finally deeming the end close enough to count them. Seven more days. This poses not only a great joy but also a great stress. Must finish strong. That's what I keep muttering to myself when my fried, sleep deprived brain begs for rest. Must finish strong.

As I finish strong, I am not only counting down to the end of the semester but also the end of my undergraduate career. As of December I will be done. Because of the unofficialness still hanging over my future plans I hesitate to let the blog world know exactly what's going on, but I can say it's exciting.

Usaully we view dreams as our final goals and our entire lives are spent finding the best stepping stone to get there. It's an amazing feeling when you realize that even a dream is a stepping stone to what adventure truly lies ahead. I have never experienced reaching a dream or goal in this manner before and I'm excited for untold adventures ahead.

The little chant that I've been muttering is not merely a chant that is applicable to all aspects of life. It is easy to be excited for the new, best thing in your life. Yet, once the excitement wears off it's easier to say, "Whatever, I'll do that better later." It's important to finish strong in all things. Must finish strong.
