end of semester

The end of the semester is approaching quickly. Some of my friends are graduating and moving away. Others are staying in Ames to work, and others are taking internships and will be back in the fall. It is kind of crazy knowing my time around here is winding down, even though I will be back for the fall semester, a lot of my friends will not be. It is getting to be that time when we start growing up and finding ourselves paying bills, and not having all that much free time just to kick back in the afternoon on any given day and have meaningless conversations with roommates and friends. And I have heard it from all too many people, "enjoy it while you can" or "I wish I could be back in college." And I know I will feel the same way when I get into the "real world" and it feels like my life revolves around work and all of the parts of life that go along with growing up. I guess for now, I can think about how I wish I didnt have homework and that I wish I was working and making money, but I will soak up the time I have left of my college career, enjoy it, and probably open another beer.
