So it's after 2 am...

Like I said in my last post, and according to How I Met Your Mother, nothing good ever happens after 2am...

And if this sign isn't proof enough, then I don't know what is.  Yet, it's 3:30 in the morning right now and I am doing just dandy.... Well, maybe.

In all reality, I am sad my freshman year is over.  I will never again be a freshman, or have the experience of meeting a bunch of new people that I don't even know exist who are all my age.  And while on one hand, I should be thankful, on the other hand I am mostly sad because I can never re-do any part of my freshman year again.  

I'm also having to pack up my room right now, and reflecting on all the fun times I had this year, and the things I will miss most about freshmen year!  Such as...

1) Having all my best friends within yelling distance

2) Spikes... It will never be back

3) Weirdly enough, my dorm. (I don't really like it very much)

4) Being able to go to CM on the weekends... That's a place only freshmen go

5) Weirdly enough, the COG. We can never eat there again.

6) Yelling (or meowing) out my window at the people who walk by

7) Going to bed at 3am just because

8) Late night talks until 5:30am

9) Randomly walking back to my dorm at ungodly hours of the night

10) Having to talk through the previous evening with all of my friends because we all did something different. (Actually the funniest thing ever)

11) Walking around the neighborhood with people you don't really know.  That how to make friends in nothing flat!

12) Overusing every phrase that we think is funny

13) Taking pictures of all the random stuff we do

14) Meeting new people every weekend

15) Having show marathons for hours on end

16) Random dance parties

17) Being able to laugh about pretty much everything that happens

18) Pulling all-nighters on the day before my last final (but not actually studying)

19) Making decisions at midnight, such as running through a broken sprinkler just because we can

20) Making memories that I can look back on for the rest of my life and not regret


That's just what comes to my me right off the top of my head... I know there are more things I will miss, but these things seem to be the most obvious, at least for me.

I definitely can't wait to get back for next year.  I just want the next four months to be over so I can be back on campus surrounded by my best friends again!  So as I finish packing up my room, I am trying to look forward to next year rather than be sad that this year is over... But right now I just want to be sad that the end of the year is here.

And until I get back to GU in the fall, keep it real Gonzaga. <3
