It's amazing how 24 hours ago I was flying through 1,000,000 thoughts and this morning I'm bopping to some music and loving life. I'd say my mood changed 5 times yesterday. My mind is just a constant switch, that sometimes I don't have control of. But, at the same time, I feel like I do…
Sometimes I experience feelings that I can't explain. I sit and think about whatever I'm thinking about and I realize that I am feeling an emotion. Whether it be sadness, happiness, joy, anger, confusion... all of the emotions I'm sure I've felt and we've all felt. But sometimes I don't know why I feel a…
As it is easy for myself to look ahead at what's to come, I can't help but be eager to start things that I know are coming in my near future. I know what I'm going to do when the time comes, so I am ready to get after it! Unfortunately, that's not how…

I am nearing, or experiencing, a lot of "lasts". The final part of my term as Vice President of my fraternity. The final month of college classes in my undergraduate college experience. The final semester of college golf. The final week until I turn 21 (I'm just getting old). It's all, of course,…
