Strange

It's funny how so much can change in just a year. I wrote this a year ago:

Heading into my senior year of college, I'm trying to come to terms with some inner turmoil.

I'm finishing up my Bioengineering degree, hopefully with good grades. I'm the captain of my dance team. I will be leaving college in a short 9 months. Possibly, assuming I graduate.

I was asked by my parents if I want to add a major, possibly something in business. I could take an extra year, giving me more time to raise my GPA, and also giving me an extra summer to get some work experience. I'm seriously considering it, as I personally don't feel ready to leave college just yet. I'm sure every college senior feels nervous to leave their home for four years. But, naturally, I feel like I'm the first person to feel this way. Everyone around me looks so sure of themselves.

I am now an alumnus of my university, with my Bachelor's in Bioengineering. I may not have gotten the best grades, but I did graduate. And I got a job.

I had to move far away from my home, and learn to adapt to a new state. But it's already been a month, and I'm beginning to feel at home. With my new job, new apartment, new friends, new life.

Life is strange.
