coming to an end...

I really didn't expect this semester to come to a close this fast. I'm not saying that I'm really sad about it coming to an end, I just can't believe that four months have almost passed since I started here at UVU in August. I feel like I given good, honest effort in my classes and I hope to be getting good grades in all of them.

A lot has happened since this semester started, and some of those changes were pretty big for me. I got engaged, changed my major (at least I'm going to see an academic counselor this week to do so), and lived completely on my own for the first time. I like the changes that are happening, especially that I'm getting married on January 2nd, but I am definitely starting to realize what people mean when they say that we all need to "grow up." Paying bills, going to school because I want to, buying a car, preparing to get married and all that being married entails have really caused me to take a lot more responsibility with who I am and where I'm going. I actually kind of like being the one in charge, and being independent, even though it is a lot more challenging than living with my siblings or parents.

Overall, I'm glad that I was able to take the classes that I had this semester and feel like I've learned quite a bit, but I am also excited to be moving on into the future! Adios Amigos.

  1. I know what you mean, this semester went by so fast! you sound like you have a very positive prospective on this semester i wish i could say the same, work and school became very hard to balance. how do you do it? i always thought i was pretty independent, coming h=out here, having no one and just going to school but in reality i have not even ONE bill. sad huh? but really how do you do it? i would love to be married, but im not sure i am ready for that kind of responsibility. I mean it will be nice to come home to the person you love every single day but, i dont know if i could just fork over half if not all of my check to bills and rent. maybe im just a spoiled brat.this just reassures me that im definaltly NOT independant, one day, when i have a serious job and NOT a fun job i will be.
