Not quite, but its winding down. I keep having these moments -- standing around the kiln during the wood firing talking, roasting hot dogs, and listening to Latin music; hacky-sacking in the lawn; watching choir and performing arts series concerts in the music center; eating cornbread at friends' houses at midnight, having a picnic by the dam, making bad puns in the living room with my house mates-- and I think, "this will all end soon!" Which isn't true, of course, because after graduation, I will still have May term. And After
May term I will still have summer. And all these things will kind of be a gradual shift into the next phase of my life. Slowly my friends and I will disperse, maybe by ourselves, maybe in clumps. But close friendships can last. And new friendships can form. And I have to remind myself that just because people tell you that college years are some of the best--and you believe them--doesn't mean that life after college sucks. Its what you make it, I guess. Just like everything else. cliché, cliché. So here's to college, and friends, and moments that last longer than the stress of finals.

-me, through Lindsy's mouth.
Also, here's to what you said. I hope life after college doesn't have to suck. Because I'm kinda pretty sad about leaving here.
