College - Junior Year
Welcome, boys and girls, to the third year of our college career. Gone are the days of Freshman year where it was, "Party at all costs," or the, "Well, maybe let's party a little less this time" Sophomore year. Here, instead, we grow ever-closer to (hopefully) graduating and moving out either to a grad school or the workplace, putting our school careers which have dominated the majority of our life behind us in order to join the job-stream. My question to you heathens is: How does this make you feel?
No psychiatrist, I'm curious because I'm damn unsure what it is that I feel when I think about finishing college which always seemed so far off in the future that I didn't have to think one bit about it. On one hand, I'm still trying to have as much fun as I possibly can while in school, but on the other a part of me wonders whether it's time to stop all this shit and just focus on my schoolwork and writing in order to better prepare myself for a time when there isn't a classroom to go to. I wonder if I can even stop doing things like playing video games? Drinking with friends on the weekends? Do I want to stop these things?
Would my life be richer without these pastimes and hobbies? Probably not but they do certainly detract from my studies and writing time; how worrisome.
Anyway, have a good school year and let me know how you're feeling about things if you'd like!
