End of Summer

This time seems to fly by so fast. A time where I'm torn between separate emotions, anticipation and longing. I am excited and anticipate the coming of the new semester so that I can conquer my studies and excel academically to undo my terrible first few years, but then I have a sense of longing for the summer. The freedom that summer brings and the ability to enjoy my youth and linger at the wonderful age of 20.

This summer thus far has been the most fun and I find it funny looking back at my childhood. I have had summers filled with trips the same or more extravagant than this year's, but I enjoyed this one more immensely than any summer before. It makes me excited to see what more maturation could bring to my life. A better understanding, interest and patience for things I hadn't had as a child, but I do worry about loosing my buoyancy, my zaniness that makes me uniquely young.

This summer has been great, but in just a few weeks I move on to my Junior year of College. This year will be more focused on the education vital to my future career and I am excited to see what else I can learn before this year is out.
