And with that, it's over.
One history exam later and I am officially done being a college freshman. It's been the best year of my life, and I can't believe it's over.
I don't know how I feel. On one hand, I feel free. Free from stress, free from homework, free from the dreaded papers that have been plaguing me all semester. I feel excited, energized by the knowledge that I'm going to get to see my family for the first time in months. Me and the bros are gonna play Minecraft, build Legos, eat every ounce of food in the fridge... it's gonna be epic.
And yet....
My family is here. Sierra, Kyle, Nick, Taylor, Mallory, Krajecki, Mikayla, Anneliese, Eric, they're all my family.Who else is going to curl up in the laundry room and watch Game of Thrones with me? Who's going to stay up until 3:00am with me to play Skyrim? Who's going to sit down with some popcorn for a Manly Movie Night with me? My life is here. My home is here.
But my family is home. And to be frank, so is the money. On Monday I start my new job at Sneller's Landscaping. It'll be quite a change from the air-conditioned chaos of Five Below. I'm excited and apprehensive. I've done plenty of yard work in my time, but I guarantee, I'm going to be the most inexperienced guy there. Regardless, it'll be an adventure.
I'm not ready to go. Literally, I haven't finished packing or cleaning. But in all seriousness, I don't want to go. I'm going to miss these people a lot. I love them a ton, and it's gonna hurt to see them go.
But hey. It's summer. I'd better enjoy it while it lasts! I'll see these people again, and when I do, it's gonna be totally awesome.
My song for today: Days of Summer from A Very Potter Sequel.

Trinity, I don't wanna see you go, but it's not forever. In the words of Michael Scott, "Catch you on the flippity flip!"
