What it's like to be a senior at Ole Miss?
Soaking up my last firsts at Ole Miss
Wow, we are already seven weeks into school, and we have so much to catch up on! I know that there is a lot going on, but I wanted to share a couple of my experiences that have happened in the last seven weeks, especially regarding graduation, a crazy football game against you-know-who, and countless moments in between.
A couple of weeks ago, I received an email from the University telling me to sign up for Senior portraits, and it felt so surreal that graduation is slowly approaching and that time is flying by. I immediately texted my parents and said, “Wow, it’s actually happening.” The feeling of graduation, as many of you might feel, is very bittersweet.
For me, I am so sad to leave Ole Miss and the city of Oxford, but also excited to explore the next chapter of my life. I have been studying and working towards a degree for 4 years, and I am excited to see what I do with it. There are so many last firsts that are happening just in these seven weeks. I had my last advising meeting for the Spring semester, and I got a celebratory bear charm from my advisor, which felt sappy.
Another huge thing for me is soaking up Saturdays in the Grove and Vaught. Gamedays as a student with my best friends is something that I am so grateful for and going to miss. As I write this, I am studying for midterms...yeah, that M word. I truly can’t believe it’s October and we are already doing midterm tests. Time is starting to creep up on us. If you are struggling with midterms or tests, don’t feel like you're going through it alone. Everyone is studying nonstop to get the grade that they want, so just take a deep breath. You all are going to do amazing. I am cheering for you every step of the way.
Well, I hope you enjoyed me playing catch-up with y’all.
Talk soon and Hotty Toddy!
