There are only a few weeks left, so hopefully I can manage to finish the doable items on the list. I really can't believe that my time at Virginia Tech is almost over. I truly love it here and, if I could, I would be a student for the rest of my life. However, it is time to start a new chapter that I am sure will be equally if not more exciting than college. I am terrified, but I am ready to check off that last item on the bucket list :)
