We are constantly moving. The day-to-day activities that occupy our time can make us forget that there is life happening around us. The best advice that I have received is to disconnect. Disconnect from the regular chores that inhibit your creative side.
As a senior on the verge of graduation, I wish I could turn back the clock and start all over again. I wish I was back in summer C, standing outside of Cawthon hall, a ball of excitement and nervousness, an Exploratory major, holding the campus map with both hands, ready to start my adventure. It really is crazy how fast time flies when you are having fun.
I wish there was more time in my college career, because there are so many things I would love to do. I think of all the clubs I could have joined, places I could have gone and people I could have met. Now that I am nearing graduation, I'm considering how I could convince my parents to let me stay just one more year, so I could accomplish all those could-have-should-have’s.
Do not let this be your story. Learn from my mistakes, and do as much as you can while you're at the most amazing school in the country. Go out and join a random club, drive around town and eat at one of Tallahassee’s hidden restaurants, go bowling in the union, just get out there and explore. You will never have an opportunity again like you do now, so make the most of this one.
When you are walking from class to class, look up and live in the moment, every moment. If you have usual bars or restaurants that you like to go to, try something new. 365 Tallahassee offers an alternative bar to get you out of your comfort zone. Let this be the start of many new experiences!
