Spring Has Sprung


Spring Semester that is. The one day a semester where girls wear jeans and make-up and guys shave their winter break beard. Ok I don't know if that's true but for me, I wore jeans and make-up. Tomorrow will most likely be back to my gym clothes.

It's time to say bye to winter break and look forward to spring break. Classes are in full force and now's a better time than any to make some goals. Not only is it a new semester, it's a new year and you can set some resolutions as well as some semester goals. Make deans list, go out for that cool club you've been looking at, talk to new people, buy more coffee. Whatever it is, you have to commit.

This is my 8th semester in college (wow). Normally, this is people's last semester but for me I still have three to go because I could never figure out what I wanted to do. This semester I'm finally starting a major I hope to love which I really think I will. Criminal Justice.  The most interesting subject to enter colleges everywhere. Bad people fascinate me and I can't wait for the day that I finally get to work with them. That kind of sounds weird, but I hope you know what I mean. I want to understand WHY they're bad. Why instead of having an argument with someone where you say mean things, WHY did you take it to the level of shooting them in the face? Why did you run over a person and not stop? Why did you spend months planning out the murder of your boss? All of these questions and millions of more fascinate me.

See, I can get pretty mad sometimes. If somebody does something to piss me off, you usually can tell. BUT I would never think about killing them because they made me angry. And although I feel like most people do think that way, some don't. There are also those killers who seem to have a normal life, sometimes even a good life that people are jealous of, and then they just snap.

Well enough about me, but let's just say I hope this semester treats me well. I have some goals in mind and I'm sure a lot of people do as well. Most people my age have graduating as a goal so if that's yours congrats, I'm proud of you and I know you'll do it. Personally, I'll save that goal for 2017.

This is a new semester to improve yourself. Strive for more and don't give up. You have 14-15 weeks depending on your school I suppose, to work hard in school and get good grades, maybe even find a killer internship for the summer. The reward at the end of this? Summer. Summer is the light at the end of the tunnel and you can do it.

You got this.
