It’s a bittersweet post today on this insanely hot summer day. Today is Morgan’s last post for us. *Sniff Sniff* . . . she’s off to college! Best wishes, you’ve got a bright and wonderful future ahead of you. Thanks for let us tag along with you this year!
Well, I guess that’s the end. I am officially no longer a senior, and once again a freshman. But being a college freshman is no where near as bad as a high school freshman. I cannot believe I’m a high school graduate. It still feels like I’ll be going back to TMHS at the end of the summer. Instead, I’ll be heading off to UConn. This is the first time I’ve actually sat down and reflected on high school, it’s making somewhat sad. I’ve changed so much, gained and lost friends, learned things I’ll never forget, and learned things I’ll never remember again. The past four years have definitely had ups and down, but they’ve had some of the best memories I’ll ever make. The end of my senior year also marks the end of my dance career. My last national competition for the Turning Pointe Dance Academy dance team was last week in Cape Cod. I couldn’t have asked for a better end to my dance career. My self-choreographed solo placed 8th out of all of the senior solos at the competition, and all of my group dances did so well. I’m so proud of the girls I dance with and how far we’ve all come. I already miss walking into the dance studio everyday. Sadly, I’m not dancing in college. I’m hopefully going to join a dance club, but I decided not to join the dance team because it would consume so much of my schedule. I didn’t want college to be like high school where I go to class and go to dance everyday and that’s it. But after my orientation, I’m super excited for college. I know that even though I won’t be dancing, I’ll get involved and make a lot friends. I haven’t thought too much about college yet though. I already have my classes set, and I’m still waiting to find out my roommate. My dad will ask if I’m nervous or excited, but for as long as I can remember, I’ve always been one to not think about things until right before. I still have over a month until I move into college, and that month will be spent enjoying my summer, and working. I’ve been working at the Vanilla Bean so much lately. Hopefully that will continue. I need to make all the money I can since I have no idea how much I’ll be working in college. I do have a job lined up, but we’ll see how much I actually work considering It’ll be my first year of college and I’m sure I’ll be overwhelmed. Writing this little blog for the past months has been so fun, I love that I could let you all into my life for a little bit. Good luck to the upcoming seniors, the class of 2013. I hope you enjoy high school as much as I did!
