one hundred.

100 days from today i will be graduating college. 100 days, that's it. this discovery (made during homework avoidance) brings forth a variety of emotions. the first is relief. relief that i only have to make it through 100 more days, filled with classes and track meets, before i am done with greenville college for good. (i say for good loosely because you never know what may happen in the future.) the second is uneasiness. my life 100 days from now is a complete mystery. in 101 days will i be leaving the midwest for home? will i be moving to a new portion of the country, waiting for me to arrive? i have no idea. the third is... something i can't put a word to yet. it is similar to the second but different, also in ways i can't describe. it is mostly related to my future in the "real world." you know, the one where i'll have a job, and bills, and insurance, and rent, and so many other things. i can't wait to be done, but i feel like i want to wait to start what comes next.

one final comment on my discovery and counting of days, and this is exciting to me. in 50 days from now, 50 days until i graduate, i will be going to see sherwood in st. louis. i can't wait for that for sure!

ready for the future?
