I leave my life, as I know it, tomorrow. I had thought about how I would be dealing with this for pretty much the entire summer. Thinking about how much I’d miss my friends: James, Brian, Dillon and me were practically brothers. I’ll miss seeing them every weekend, playing Call of Duty together, and just hanging out. I’m still finding it hard to believe that I’m going to be so far away, I never thought I’d be the kid to go super far away for college – but Clemson just feels like the right choice. It’ll be a nice change of scenery though, almost like an escape from normalcy (or a redefining of my “normal”). But this past week has more than made up for all the times I just brushed off the idea of relocating. I’ve gone to three end-of-the-summer parties, but they were really going away parties in disguise. I heard Alphaville's song "Forever Young" about twenty times between the three parties. It’s weird, but I don’t feel like college is my next step, I kind of feel too young to be going? It’s hard to explain. One more spin of the Earth, folks, and this guy will officially be a college student. Better catch some sleep, got an early start tomorrow. Over and out.
The next time I graduate will be the last time I graduate...weird.
