It is hard to believe that a month ago I graduated from The University of Florida. It doesn’t feel like it was that long ago that I arrived at The University of Florida to pursue my undergraduate degree, but wow does four years fly by. I have grown so much over these past four years and learned so many valuable life lessons, both in and out of the classroom. There are so many things about your time in college that make it so special. But if there is one piece of wisdom I had to impart about college, it is to cherish your time in this unique situation. It seems so simple, but sometimes we can take for granted the unique opportunities college offers, such as navigating life on your own, making new friends, and learning in a new environment. There will never be another time in your life when you are able to live the same way you did in college, so take advantage of this and make the best memories you can before time runs out. When it is all over, you will be able to look back and smile thinking about the memories you made in college.
Sending sunshine your way!
XOXO,
Mackenzie
