Hmm. Sleep may not be happening tonight.

I've got so much on my mind right now. Tomorrow marks the official start of the Spring 2011 semester, which also happens to be my last semester of my undergraduate career. I've been looking up commencement stuff: cap and gown, class rings, honors sashes, etc. Looking at the honors stuff makes me wish I had tried harder. In some ways. I don't regret anything that happened. I had a great college experience. I learned so much, and I still have a lot left to learn. I guess I can say I've pretty much done it all.
Been in a long distance relationship vs. playing the field
Kicking ass in class vs. failing miserably
Completely uninvolved in school life vs. involved
In love vs. emotionally unattached (similar to first one, but not the same)
Blown off someone for little reasons vs. dating someone for a couple months for little reason
Been so damn busy I was lucky I remembered how to get dressed vs. been so damn bored I
couldn't stand it
I can't believe these (almost) 3 years have gone by so fast. It's all incredibly mind blowing to me.
Now I'm dealing with my feelings for a new guy that just decided to waltz into my life. We knew each other over the summer, and there was definite chemistry, but I had other guys on my docket at the time. This time, the chemistry is undeniable. He makes me content without even trying. Just listening to him speak makes me happy. He has this adorable Louisiana accent... I can't resist! *sigh* Oh and he lives in Orlando. This semester is going to be a tough one.
I'm hoping between my classes, my job, sports, and my friends I'll be kept busy enough. I know it's going to fly by and I really need to stop wishing it were closer to the end. It doesn't help I can't sleep. I was awake at 8:30 this morning, but I couldn't get back to sleep. Now I'm afraid if I go to sleep I'm going to be miserable when I try to wake up tomorrow. Ohhhh dilemmas.
