College days swiftly pass, is what someone told me before I started school. Indeed these college days have swiftly passed.
As my final semester at N.C.Central University begins to wind down, I can't help but think about how much I am going to miss this place.
When I first came to NCCU as a freshman in fall 2007, I was 18 years old and fresh out of high school.
College took a lot of time to get used to—I was away from home, with the most freedom I have ever had in my life.
I had to learn to manage my time wisely, get used to living with girls, and avoid being a statistic.
My sophomore year I declared my major as mass communication. That year I began working with the Campus Echo.
My first piece was on the Juicy Campus drama that took over the yard. I remember working on my first story for the Echo with then editor-in-chief Geoffrey Cooper.
I thought after that story that I was done writing for the Echo. Never did I think I would take on writing pieces for the arts and entertainment section my junior and senior year, let alone becoming arts and entertainment editor.
Since this is my last piece for the Campus Echo I intended to have fun with this.
With that said, before I end my last piece I would like to shout out all of my favorite people who have been there for these four short years and those I leave behind at this great institution.
Josh Spells, Jemil Rasheed, and Morgan Crutchfield (MY bffs for life). Erik, Emerson, and Don (my little bros); KBRICK, Shemika, Mani, Bridge, Chantal, and Missy (my little sisters).
My good friends who have held me down: Jerrod Williams, Roland Reaves, Jus, Dave, Landon, Manley, Nigel Hood, Kalvin, Paw-Paw, Maria (my personal Kardashian and Chipotle queen), Drewski, Terrance Caldwell (thank you and I love you), Zack Means, Jerome, Aaron, Tommia, DP, Matt, Zev, Jonathan (The Campus Echo), and last but not least my golden girls: We all have finally made it out of here.
I apologize if I forgot anyone, but I love you all the same. At this point in my life I can't really complain about anything.
I have worked hard and gained so much. These memories are forever lasting and the memories that I carry from college will be some of my greatest. I can finally scream, "Momma," I made it!"
