Childhood

Chris and I went to play in the park today. Its moments like those that I wish that moments like those could happen all the time. Its how I know that I'm ready to be done with college. I'm not done learning, I'm not done reading or writing or actually being a student but I'm done with the pressure that 16 hours puts on you, especially when the world also requires you to have a job, be a minister, and have a social life at the same time. I understand that one day I'm going to have a job and a family and responsibility but for some reason I feel like that not having all the extra pressure that school causes is going to make the rest of life really nice. I want to have park days, and reading at Barnes and Noble days, and making dinner together days. I have one year left and I am going to make the most of it while I can. Its going to be fun hanging out with the girls and planning a wedding, etc. But the days of exploring the world because I want to not because I have to are going to be welcomed with open arms.

All of this to say, I'm considering going to grad school.
