So it has come, again, the time to sign up for housing. And once again, my name will be on the top of that application. And once again, under the “preferred roommates” category, a name and panther ID will be placed. And yet, I am in such a different place than I was, not even a year later. It wont be Kristina’s name which fills those lines, the one who’d initially piqued my interest in housing at FIU, but instead her name will be replaced by Megan and Brittany. I couldn’t be more excited, really; and not even just because I will be living with the two people who I have grown closest to this past year at University. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a great thing, but what really puts a smile on my face is that everything that strained me not two or three weeks ago has all seemingly dissolved. So i may have to take classes over the summer, no big deal. So I may have to find a job on or around campus, in Miami, and probably not able to go home except for occasional weekends when Premonition’s practice has ended. No big deal. I am getting EVERYTHING that I want. A decent job, friends, a home away from home, living on campus, getting back into color guard through Premonition, where I will inevitably progress on my own accord, not held back by the chains and restraints in which my instructors have locked around my ankles. Everything is falling into place, and I couldn’t be more excited. And so, the race towards the end of Freshman year comes to a close, and the countdown to a new year, and a new chapter in my life begins.
Dear life, BRING. IT. ON.
