Emerging Adulthood

I recently starting going to college and there is only one thing I can really say about it: It's infinitely better than high school, but also infinitely harder. What's incredible is how liberating it feels to me to have so much to do all the time. You'd think that always having a mile-long to-do list would be stressful (which it is, I suppose) and feel like a cage, but to me it really doesn't. When I was in high school, all I ever really had to do was school stuff, but now that I'm in college there's so much more depth to my life. I have a job to go to and bills to pay and groceries to buy. I have a million papers to write, and quotas to fill at work and family to take care of. I honestly love being this busy. It makes me appreciate my free time a lot more than I ever did before and while being on the brink of adulthood is paralyzing, I'm starting to feel like I can really do it. Hopefully this confidence in my abilities continues...
