It felt like just yesterday that we were moving into our freshman dorms, scared as hell and more excited than ever. Freshman year was filled with ups and downs; meeting new friends and losing old ones, getting involved on campus but missing home, taking interesting classes but still having no idea what we wanted to be after college - but it didn't even matter because we still had so much time to figure it out.

Then sophomore year rolled around and we were so excited to get back to campus after a long summer of being away from our new lifestyle. It was hard to believe that our freshman year was already over; we weren't the fresh meat anymore and we knew how this whole college thing worked. Sophomore year was a blast living with all of our friends and being acclimated on campus. Fall semester came and went, and come spring semester we were eager for summer and to return back as a junior.

Junior year rolled around and it was the best one yet. We couldn't believe we were already juniors but we were loving every second of it. Most of us lived in suite-styled dorms with our closest friends and made the most out of every second with each other, staying up until ungodly hours of the night talking about anything or sitting there in comfortable silence, growing closer regardless. Fall semester came and went, and we were all eager for spring break and spring week on campus.

Just like the rest, spring semester came and went. We're all preparing for finals and just trying to get through the last week of classes. We're looking forward to summer but saddened that this may be the last time we see most of the familiar faces of the senior class. We're eager to return back to campus in a few months as seniors, but hoping the summer lasts forever so that we never have to leave here.

Where did the time go? It feels like just yesterday we were moving into our freshman dorms. So much has happened between now and then, so much has changed. We made it to senior year even though it seemed so far away on move-in day three years ago. This coming fall starts the beginning of the last chapter of our college undergrad career. We all know it'll be the best year, the one that'll probably stick our most in our minds when we look back on our college years.

Some of us are eager to graduate and go to grad school or enter the real world. Some of us want to stay an undergrad forever. Regardless, we have one year left, class of 2017. One more year. It seems like a long time, but so did three years when we were freshman and look where we are now. Make the most of these last two weeks of junior year, make the most of your last summer before senior year, and definitely make the most of every second of your senior year. Don't wish it away, don't look too far ahead into the future, but enjoy every moment (the good and the bad) up until the day you walk on stage and receive your degree.

So...take advantage of every opportunity, make the most of every second left as a college undergrad. Don't wish your senior year away because it'll come and go before you know it. Class of 2017, let's make senior year some of the best days of our lives.
