I finished my last final of the semester!!!!
Promptly after I returned to my room at 8:45am, I took a nap. Yes, I took a one and a half hour nap first thing in the morning. I didn't plan on doing that, and had even gotten a good night's sleep the night before, but it was like I finally let down after the exam was over. Like I said, I still have other responsibilities, but this was just one great weight that was lifted. That nap was glorious.
Fun fact: Today was the last day that the scent of burgers came wafting into my room first thing in the morning.
Every Thursday is Big Burger Thursday in the cafeteria. Since my room is near the vents to the down to the kitchen, I inevitably smell burgers every single Thursday morning. Not my favorite thing to wake up to, but it's been reality for the three semesters I've lived in this room.
Two days from now, I'll move out of this room forever though.
I'll be living in the campus apartment housing next semester, and I will actually be able to cook for myself, which will be incredibly helpful. Moody's meal plan does allow me to eat gluten and dairy-free, but it has been hard finding enough nourishment in the cafeteria with both of those restrictions. I have had my fair share of spinach, broccoli and rice meals!
It will be a challenge, but also a privilege to get to cook my own food next semester and to live in an apartment instead of the dorms. I'll be taking one more step towards "adult" living. Whoa. Things are changing!
With my last exam, and my last burger-scented morning, the end of the semester is really drawing near. It's strange. I don't like that goodbyes have to be said, and yet I am excited for what's ahead. I'm sure I'll miss parts of living in the dorms, but I'm obviously looking forward to living in a slightly more "home-y" environment with my two roommates. Change is good, though bittersweet!
