I came across this picture today online:


It made me think of the many times in life we want to slow time down and go back to when days were simpler and easier. If you're reading my blog then you are most likely starting or in the middle of your college search and/or application process. You're almost done with highschool and are about to embark on heading off to college. I remember those days so well, not knowing what major I would choose and feeling all the uncertainty about the change about to take place in my life. Now as a college senior I am facing the same fears and excitement about what lay ahead. Instead of majors I'm worried about jobs. Instead of thinking about where I'm going to go to school I'm thinking about where I'm going to live.

As I start my last semester as a Notre Dame woman next week it will be the beginning of the end so to speak. I am glad I've had NDMU here for me these past few years to shape me into the person I am. I remember so vividly wearing my cap and gown at my honors convocation ceremony and in a few short months I'll be walking across stage to receive my diploma in that same assemble. If you've recently been accepted or if you're still narrowing down your options, I hope you find NDMU to be as beneficial as so many of the current students do. As I leave, many of you will be following in my shoes. So I encourage you, do not regret growing older, it is a privilege denied to many.
