I am a mere 24 hours and 26 minutes from turning 19. That sounds old to me. Granted it's still a "teen," but it seems different. I used to always imagine my college self as a whole new woman. Ha, I would drink lots of tea/coffee, have numerous intellectual conversations, I'd be productive and involved. I'd be a grown up. This is not the college me. I'm still binging on chocolate, my conversations revolve around the weather, and I'm always distracted by facebook. The glowing college life I so looked forward to has turned out to be just life. It's a life I love, granted, but I just don't feel like a college kid. I feel like me--a me that's not quite 19. But I can't wait for cake :)
