I knew this day was coming, and it just hit me as to how much it really means. Today is not only Easter Sunday, but it's also the beginning of the last phase of college.
Yes, I know I've written about it before. But, I never really had any indication of what it felt like until this morning. After spending the night out with my boys for a 21st celebration, I woke up and went to my favorite hangover hole-in-the-wall, Temple Rainbow. As I sat down and was eating my food, I was talking to my friend, Jeff, and we realized that today was the last time we'd ever have to sit through fraternity elections. I know you're all thinking, "who gives a shit, stop whining." But, it really hit me hard. I hate elections, they take forever, and people waste so much time with bullshit. Yet, after saying out loud that I don't have to do it ever again, I really felt at a loss.
I can't begin to imagine what I'm going to start feeling like in a few weeks. My last classes, last lunch groups, last parties...everything seems to be coming at me head-on without any signs of slowing. I had no idea it would be this way.
I do know that I'm not going to take any day I have left at Temple for granted. My closest friends here will be by my side through it all, including on graduation day. I just hope that they want to make the most of it, too, cuz doing it alone won't do me any justice.
