Driving down to college tomorrow!

by EpicSkills32, Sep 18, 2016, 6:26 AM

Two posts in one night wow.

After a brief discussion with myself, I decided that this event in my life merits a blog post in itself.
Building a computer was super fun and I do encourage you, dear reader, to go check it out somewhere down below this post (scroll downnnn). I procrastinated in posting the post and now I'm forced to make two posts in one day derp.

Flashback to almost a month ago (one day less than 4 weeks), I was skimming the blogroll when I noticed this post. Rather, I noticed that that user had posted on his blog. He's a guy that I've seen around AoPS ever since I've joined, so he's one of the "old-timers" that I "know" from AoPS. Ya know, one of those people I share a special bond with, by virtue of having been a user since before 2012. It's kinda hard to explain and probably impossible to comprehend if you're relatively newer, but there are certain people on AoPS you just feel like you know, even if you've never really talked to them.

Anyway, (idk where that tangent came from but it felt good to write out), if you read my comment on his post, I mentioned how this was so surreal.
Fast-forward to today, I'm now around 12 hours from leaving home for college. (Ok a little under 12 hours since I'm gonna be going to church and leaving from there) The "month" that I commented about has passed, and it definitely felt waayyyy too fast. At the same time, I can say that it was a good month with lots of good memories with all my best friends (yay swim team).

Darn over the past week, I've been going up and down on an emotional roller coaster. Some times I'm really excited for college, sometimes I start reminiscing about swim team and home and I get sad. It's really weird, but after saying a final goodbye to my swim team I felt somewhat less emotional about leaving it. I guess I have that thought in my head that I can come back for Thanksgiving and Christmas, not to mention next summer, but it's not gonna be the same.

idk why but for this post I'm gonna put the music at the end. I tried not to listen to these songs this past week because they bring up so many emotions but I guess I'll put them here.

One Direction: Forever Young



Manic Drive: Good Times


lol put the somewhat happier one at the end.

somewhat interesting side note(s)
