Almost there

Hey everyone! How's life? I wanted to pop in and share some of my thoughts and emotions as I approach the end of my time as an undergrad.

^this is a photo from my internship the other day - one of the other interns brought her dog, Kira, in!

I graduate in a month and 2 days... crazy. I've always hated school. Really hated it. College was hard and I wasn't happy in the beginning, which is why I transferred with a friend to a new school that I loved, just to have that friend drop out and not tell me until the day of move in junior year. There were a lot of ups (doing one of my 180 hours internships in Rome) and a lot of downs (pretty much all of freshman year). I have been counting down to graduation since the day I started college and now that it's quickly approaching, I'm sad.

I don't want to leave this school! I don't want to go out and get a job and work every day! I don't want to live in PA even though I have to to save money for a bit! I want to stay in this moment, right now, forever. I've finally made new friends, I finally know Boston like the back of my hand, I finally am doing an internship and taking classes that I absolutely love, and now I have to leave?

I'm stressed about finals and everything that comes with the end of the school year, as well as what I'll be doing after graduation because I still don't know. I want to have an answer just because I'm tired of being asked and saying "I don't know."

I'm hoping I can take each day and live in it. Wake up early, do as much as I can in a day, and take care of myself. These days seem to go by faster and faster and I just want to make sure I'm not wasting a second.
