Twenty-two Seconds: The End of the Semester

It might have been long enough since I last blogged that I had to go through my pictures to recall what I should blog about. Whoops.

Homecoming. Light-Up Night. End of semester dinner (and a Steelers game) with freshmen year friends. End of semester dinner (and gift exchange) with my RAs and housefellows.

Oh, and those test things called finals. I did well on those, and those are boring, so we can skip that.

Back in November, I was still kind of cruising along. I had one more job interview with Microsoft before I could make a decision by December 1st.

And I think that's one reason I think I didn't post. Because during October and early November, I was consumed with job hunting. And then when I made my decision to be a front-end software engineer at Applied Predictive Technologies, I had to focus again on classes and the houses for which I am a community advisor.

 

Friends also became a priority as the flow of time became very apparent. One semester left!

After a quick finals week, I caught a ride with my newly hooded (meaning she got her doctorate!) aunt back to DC and the comfy abode of my grandparents.

And how am I feeling, going into next year?

There is so much I'm excited for. However, soon it'll be time. And I'm not dreading it. Because it is time.

And twenty-two seconds*? It reminds me that there is still time to make timeless memories, even as time is flying by.

*The real story is that that is how long it takes for a card with glitter glue on it to start smoking in the microwave when you try to speed up the drying process.
