Last year, best year

This week marked the official beginning of my final year at Longwood University. My last first day of school, at least for the foreseeable future was on Monday. The beginning of what I'm hoping is my best year at the best university. It also brings a lot of change. This year is going to bring a lot of new adventures to my life. It is going to be a year full of "lasts" and a year full of "firsts." With that I invite you to join me on this journey. My intentions are to document my last year and the planning for my future through my blog, as I best express myself through the written word. This year is going to be full of many uncomfortable situations that I plan to find ways to become comfortable with. As you may or may not know from my previous blog post, I have begun planning my future outside of college. I can't wait to start planning my move out of Virginia for not long after I graduate and this year will bring many realizations about this move that I can't wait to face them with an open mind. This year brings many challenges, but the way that I look at it is that these challenges is rather as stepping stones for me. I can't wait to face this year head on. I believe that an individual has the most potential when they face their challenges with open arms and this is what I plan on doing during my fourth and final year at Longwood. Cheers to the end, but also cheers to what looks like the beginning of a great life outside of the realm of schooling, which seems to be all I've ever known for the past 16 years.
