Missing the Little Things...

With my one year anniversary of being a college graduate coming up, i feel this is an appropriate post :-)

When I was about to graduate college, I was so excited. A lot of people were worried about "the real world" that we were about to enter. I was just excited because I was so sick of writing useless Spanish poetry papers and doing busy work that would not help me in my future. I was also looking forward to getting married, living in our own house and being able to work and make money 40 hours a week. Now dont get me wrong, i still feel the same and am happy to be done with school... but... its just the little things i miss.

My Facebook status from Tuesday said it perfect.

Lauren OKeefe Sands is looking at old pictures and missing the little things like: the sorority hall, mexicali's patio, the border, socials, woodland's pool, pic-man, skipping classes, trends n blends, homecoming, band parties, dance marathon, north campus, hong kong, ga theatre, formals, random nights out, sleeping late, gamedays, old friends... college life! when did i become such a grown up and how do i go back?

  Do i wish i could redo it or live it all over again? No...not at all- but i guess i just wished i would have enjoyed the little things a little bit more. Senior My fifth year i did take more time because i only took a few classes, so i had a lot of free and fun time but my freshman/sophomore year just flew by. These are things that you just cant replace. Now of course I can go back to Carrollton or Athens whenever I want, but its not the same. The people aren't the same, the places aren't the same, the feelings aren't the same. Its like you are walking into someone elses territory. We're alumni (which obviously makes us old to undergrads) and married (which makes me even older), but I cant blame them for thinking that- i am sure I did the same. 

 When I get bored, sometimes I will go back and look through old pictures that I miss or that have really good memories to me. I thought I would post a few...

I'm sure this wont be the last blog that I do on this subject. I have just had amazing friends, stories, memories, parties, events, EVERYTHING that i just never want to forget. 

I want to thank anyone and everyone who has ever touched my life, taken a photo together or even just even given a smile.  You have someway impacted me and who i am today.

I am so lucky because of all of you.
