SIX

During the first semester of college a lot of things change for a lot of students, and I was no exception. I started off this year knowing exactly what I wanted to do with my life, where I wanted to go, what I wanted to be... But as the semester went on, I started to change my mind. I'm in a bit of a limbo with where I want to go in life, but for now, I'm okay with it. A lot of things have changed in such a short time for me and consequently made me grow as a person. I'm not exactly sure what I want to do or where I want to go anymore, but I do know that no matter what I am a very strong individual and I can get myself through anything. This first semester put a lot into perspective for me. I have always done everything on my own, so I feel as though I was prepared for living on my own and being away from home. I think that my independence has grown even more so now, though. Most things didn't end up like I thought they would by any means, but I have learned to move on and forward with life. I think my ability to adapt and carry on has been the biggest way I've grown this semester, and I hope to continue to do so in the rest of my life.
