With the school year quickly coming to a close, I thought it would be the perfect time to explain how freshmen year ending has me feeling. Let me tell you, so many feels. The main feeling is amazement that I actually survived my first year of college.

There is so much to pack

College is supposed to become your home for the nine months your there, and let me tell you I have made myself quite comfortable in my dorm room. I have so much stuff that I honestly still don't know how I fit in my room. I have so much crap, but don't worry... I'm just gonna start packing a day before I leave.

SO much has happened this past year.

There have been highs and lows. College is a rollercoaster. Honestly, all I can say: "Gurl."

Wow, I actually made friends that I am going to miss.

Yas girl you go! Everyone's biggest fear coming into college is that they won't make any friends. But, I did it! Yay... but now I have to say goodbye to them.

Finals Suck.

Amidst all the feelings being felt about the year coming to an end, I still have to worry about the work that I am currently drowning in. So that's fun.

I never want to leave.

I never thought a place so far away from my actual home would ever feel like home. But, campus has become my second home. And now I'm one year closer to graduation. That thought is absolutely terrifying.

BUT super excited for my own bed and shower.

While I am sad to leave my second home, there is nothing like a hug from your mom and taking a shower without wearing shoes. Oh, and real food!!

8 Things I Realized After My First Semester In College

Actually, Kylie Jenner, 2018 is the year of realizing things.

The first semester of college is famous for being one of the most difficult transitions of one's young adult life. You're thrown into a completely new area where the majority of the people surrounding you are strangers in an academic environment that's much more challenging then what you've grown accustomed to for the past twelve years. On top of that, you probably share a room with another person (or even multiple people) on the lumpiest "mattress" you've ever slept on.

With this change comes a lot of questions: what do I want to major in? What am I passionate about? Is what I'm passionate about something I'm actually good at? Why does the bathroom smell like cranberry juice and vodka? What is that thing at the bottom of the shower drain?

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.
