I have roughly 51 hours until my first class of the new semester starts. Am I ready for this? Can I handle a third year of this chaos they call college? Yes, I can and I will. But before that starts, I have about a million things to do: gather all my textbooks, change my work schedule around for the start of school, actually practice my orchestra music, and squeeze every last bit of enjoyment I can out of this summer. Plus more.
There were many things I was planning to do this summer that I didn't get accomplished. There were many things I wasn't planning to do this summer that I ended up doing and enjoying. I'm not sure I'm ready for it to end though. With the end of summer comes the start of school. With the start of school brings a crazy semester that simultaneously seems to never end and goes by too fast. I'm half done with college. I don't want the next two years to go as quickly as the first two have. I'm anticipating many new adventures in the months to come.
I'm not really sure what to expect with the new semester, other than the same old staying up late doing homework and going on late night coffee runs. There's bound to be some concerts, early morning breakfasts at Wolfgang's, long night labs, and orch board meetings. I'm excited for it all, though my thoughts aren't very coherent on the matter. But, I told myself in light of last year's significant lack of blog posts, I'd start this year out right. A little start back into the world of blogging is better than no start at all. So here's to a new school year, full of new things to learn and new things to experience. To many papers and many blog posts. To music in every shape and form. To friends, family, and loved ones. And mostly to life.
