As I sit here writing this post, I can barely believe that exactly one week from today, I will be starting my internship with Make a Wish! My interview and job offer came months ago, and January 26th seemed so far away only a couple months ago. But now, Thanksgiving has come and gone, Christmas and time with family is over, and the new year is already on a roll! My first week of class is even over! I know that I will barely blink and the semester will be over, and I'll be getting ready to start my senior year of college.
Growing up, my parents always told me to enjoy my childhood because life somehow keeps going by faster and faster as the years pass by. I never believed them, that is until I started noticing this pattern for myself. It doesn't help any that I am a year ahead in my bachelor's program, so I will be graduating in three years instead of four, seemingly speeding up time even more! It scares me to think that I will soon be out in the "real world". I will be an adult in the workforce, living on my own, being a productive contributor to society, with no one but myself to hold accountable for my actions. That is a notion that is scary and thrilling all at the same time. I am so excited for where I am at in life right now, but I am just as anxious to see what the future holds!
