Talking in Circles

With every college students comes busy schedules, pages of notes, and lots of stress. So when it comes to that point when one can take a break from everything that has bothered them and have time to reset from the overbearing academic life and extracurriculars, it's great to sit back and look back. Spring Break 2009: While some are currently partying in Mexico, or visiting overbearing parents, I'm (voluntarily) sitting here thinking how I came to this spot of my life, I begin to recount the many years built up to this moment now. I'm 19, and I thought I knew how to settle most issues based on just 'being mature', but now that has fallen by the wayside. Scary yes, however, it's a surprise facing day-to-day challenges. I'm 19, and a Freshman in college.

For the most part, I enjoy writing these thoughts down, as it gives me a way to completely let loose and start over, with a blank page (for the most part). Often, I wonder how these blogs help in the long run, and I've seen some peoples feelings let loose, others, go unattended. To place emphasis on either one of these would be absurd, but for now, as the great Beatles song states "Let It Be".

As I sit here (at 3:35AM), I listen to Coldplay's, "The Scientist", and I think how great and stupid it would be to head in reverse. Often, I think how everyone should only look forward, and for the most part, I live by that creed. Yet, how comforting it would feel to simply retract one moment in the past, and relive it. I suppose that's where my point comes to. I sometimes refuse to read the rest of some blogs, based on the first entry, in which they start out as.. "Hi my name is...I'm currently single.." To anyone I may have offended, sorry, but at times, I think this isn't MySpace or Facebook; I don't need a complete eHarmony profile. So for now, I'm 19, in college, and I have no idea what I'm talking about... (somewhat)
