Darcy

Darcy's the name. Not much to it you see, other than a girl trying to make it through life unscathed, although it seems quite impossible right now. Only time will tell what is in store, so I'm just enjoying life as it is. What is there to know? College student (Go Bulldogs!), blonde, ambitious, unmotivated, and most definitely not boring. 


At the moment, trying to pay for my second year of college has become nearly impossible. No matter how many scholarships I get or financial aid I am given, it just isn't enough. Does anyone else have that problem? No? Just me? It feels as if no one is willing to work with a college student to help us. Some of us going to college could be helping them one day. What happens when one of us becomes their doctor in the future? Of course we will help, because we know how much someone can really need help. 
All in all, college sucks when it comes to paying for it. 
The fun starts when you actually get in and figure the money part out. That moment at the beginning of the semester when you experience freedom for the first time, living off by yourself for the first time. The world is your oyster. That moment your parents leave from dropping you off and you can do almost anything that you want to. 
That's when it all becomes worth it. 
My first year of college, I had the privilege of meeting the people who have become the best friends I always needed during high school. That friend that was honest when needed, just down the hall from you, a friend that would help you at 3 in the morning no matter what. 
They say the friends you make in college are the ones that last a lifetime.
Friends come and go.
Elementary. 
Middle School.
High School.
College.
I'm not sure what treasures my second year will bring, but I'm so excited to find out (assuming I can pay for it).
