This Is The End.

Cue Adele coming in and singing "Skyfall" - but really, this is so surreal to think that this is (most likely) the last blogpost I will make as a student at Saint Michael's College. It's hard not to get emotional about all of the amazing times I've had being a student here, all of the friends I've made, all the unique experiences that I wouldn't have been able to get anywhere else. Working my way up from Ryan Hall to a townhouse in the 1's, I've regretfully climbed the ranks to a cap and gown in just a couple of weeks.

As a lot of you may know, I've been working on my book Seeing Change so much this semester that I've lost track of time a lot of the time. Some days felt so long working on this project, like the semester would never really end, but now that I'm here, it's unreal just how quickly time has passed. I experienced my senior year P-Day, which was incredible. I got inducted into four different honors societies. I will be graduating (hopefully) with a 3.9 GPA. I'm just so proud of the person I've become because of Saint Michael's, and I hope to take all of the knowledge, experience, and friendships I've gained here into the future.

Speaking of that, I'm not entirely sure what I want to do with my future...which is totally okay! For those of you who may be reading this and thinking you need a plan immediately after college, please don't stress if you don't end up having one immediately. I was so busy working on other stuff this semester that revamping my resume and applying for jobs were the last things on my mind, but there's always time for that. And who knows, maybe by waiting I'll have stumbled onto a new and more beneficial path for the future. You never know! But just in case, I did end up revamping my resume a couple of days ago.

But that's enough sad and adult things for one post. To top off this final post, I wanted to share some awesome times I've had this semester with all of you through pictures. I hope all of you are making the most out of what you have left in your semester. I know I'm going to miss Saint Michael's way too much when I graduate.

Free Cone Day! It was gorgeous out and I got to go with some great friends.

Of course, my book. This became my entire life very quickly, and although it was written for a class, I would write it over and over again. The LGBTQ community means so much to me, and I'm glad I put the time and effort into this that I did.

My friends Erin, Maya, and I on P-Day! P-Day was a tradition that I didn't really partake in my freshman and sophomore years because I was so antisocial, but I regret it deeply. It was such a blast coming out of my shell at Saint Michael's, and with great friends and friendly people everywhere, I found myself becoming more outgoing every day.
Take care, readers! It's been a blast writing for Saint Michael's, and I hope you've enjoyed following my crazy, hectic, and amazing life!
