'Welcome to Time' - What does that mean?!

Does this need an introduction, a thesis statement like in English class? Don't worry, I'll make sure it's not deeply metaphorical - god forbid it gets rejected and I have to dumb it down for my PhD teacher who can't spell her own last name (no, really. A student had to correct it for her).

Alright. So, Summer was...absolutely amazing, and probably life-changingly maturing and all that if I'd stop to think about it. Except, school's started again, and I feel like all I can do is be here, because if I start thinking I'll get upset. So I'm content, but also ridiculously restless...maybe a result of all the changing places during the summer, with all new people, cultures, etc - I can't imagine how happy I would be to wake up and find out I'm starting over (albeit also incredibly uncomfortable for the first week, but that's how it always is - then the 2nd week I realise I'm beginning to be myself again). 
More on this later, because I still need to plan out my next course of action.

If you were wondering, 'welcome to time' - I had a dream where someone said that to me, right before I woke up, and it keeps running through my head. How dumb does it sound? I don't know. Like those psychic people in stories who sound so strange, saying something totally random is really important. 
Well, sometimes it's really important.
Occasionally.
Or maybe our dear psychic is just so damn restless, she needs something to mix it up.
