My Super Sappy Post about My First Year of College

Today I finished my last class of my first year in college.
This year was incredible. I made some awesome

<----------friends ---------->

I had a radio show.

With a kickass co-host.

I fell in love with feminism and started writing for a blog.

我学了中文。

I had an awesome roommate.

Who shared her family's Easter traditions

I took some classes, too. They were good.

Basically, although I had some pretty rough weeks, I had a wonderful first year.

I learned so much, which I know is the point of college. So when I say I learned so much, I mean I discovered so many new things. My friends and I debated, fought, cried, laughed (mostly), and just became family. We talked about everything from sex to Israel to enviromentalism to cafeteria food recipies to beer. Because so many of my friends are international, I won't be able to see them over the summer. I am going to miss them intensly.

But, you know what I won't miss: sharing a bathroom with 11 girls I don't really know. I won't miss walking in on shower sex or unflushed toilets. I definatley won't miss other people's hair in the drain.

But, enough with the negative. I love lists, so here are some reasons why I am excited about next year:

1. Living with all my friends!

2. Taking classes that I want

3. Learning Spanish

4. Declaring my majors

5. Meeting new kids

6. Sustainable take-out containers

7. Maybe writing for TKS

8. Decorating a whole new room

9. Not being a freshman

10. Sharing a bathroom with only 3 people

11. Not working at 7:45am

Yay.
