Day 12: What do you miss? (a person, a thing, a place, a time of your life...)

Day 12: What do you miss? (a person, a thing, a place, a time of your life...)

     While I couldn't be more happy with where I'm currently at in life, I'd have to say I miss college. I loved college so much I decided to stay for five years. Each year was very different than the last, but they were all so good for very different reasons.

Freshman Year: This year was special because this was the year that I realized I actually liked kids. I know, it's crazy (especially coming from a former teacher), but I actually spent the majority of my life not being so crazy about the kiddos. I took a job as a babysitter during my freshman year of college and fell head over heels in love! It started with one sweet five year-old little boy, and then it grew to two sweet baby boys. By the end of that year I was babysitting four kids regularly and loved every minute of it.

 Sophomore Year: This year was a cuh-razee year! I was the definition of a bookworm in the previous year, but sophomore year was when I put the books on the back-burner and scooted the social aspect of college to the forefront. In hindsight, I definitely would have taken school more seriously, but the fun this year held cannot be denied!

Junior Year: This was most definitely my favorite year of college. I was joined at the hip with four other girls, and we had a blast! I was fortunate enough to live with two of these lovely ladies. We had so much fun! This was also the year I changed my major to education. :)

Senior Year, Part 1: I moved in with my parents, transferred to AUM, and worked at Jim N Nicks. I thought moving in with my parents would be horrific, but it actually turned out to be spectacular! The five of us girls were still inseparable and moved our fun to Montgomery, rather than Auburn.

Senior Year, Part 2: This year was great because all of my hard work and time was finally paying off. I could see the light at the end of the tunnel. I completed my internship and landed my dream teaching job before graduation!

    I could honestly write so many entries about these five years. There's so much to tell, and I barely skimmed the surface of highlights. I hope your college experience was as wonderful as mine!
