What an amazing weekend. I went on a run around Lewisburg yesterday afternoon and and had this enormous epiphany. The town and campus looked so gorgeous - the snow was melting, the sky was clear and it was sunny. As I was running through all that beauty I just felt so happy. The moment hit me so hard - how lucky I am to be at this school, to be where I am in life, how fortunate I am to have all the opportunities I have been given.
I get so caught up in the little details of my life. I get upset about a quiz grade, I worry about relationships, I'm never satisfied with my appearance. I need to start looking at the big picture. How lucky I am to be at college, to live away from home. I feel free here, there are so many possibilities and chances to expose myself to different things. This was my dream for so long - I remember senior year just dreaming about living in a dorm room, going out to parties, meeting new people. And here it is. I'm not going to waste it.
