I've been sitting here looking at this blank screen for a while trying to figure out how to verbalize how I feel. Was spree day really only a week ago? Are there really only a week of classes left?
This year's dance show is now over. Its always so crazy that we work so hard for so long, and then the show just flashes by. I know already that the dance dvd will be watched often this summer, and shown off.. I'm just so proud of us!
Last night after the show, when the curtains closed we all just kinda plopped down holding eachother, crying over the beautiful seniors. This didn't happen last year, and up until this semester, I didn't think it would happen this year. But this year is something special. I don't know when Variant became this close, but its amazing. To know I have a place with so many girls (and a Jesse) that love eachother so much has changed me so much. Starting this year, I expected Variant to be like it has for the other two years, fun and dancey, and friendly. I hadn't imagined we'd be insepearable. I always figured if we all spent that much more time together out of dance, we'd get dramaish. I think we're the only 20ish people that don't. I love that we're so close, that last night could only end when we knew we'd see eachother today.
I can't imagine Clark without my beautiful Variant seniors. I don't know dance without them. I'm not ready for them to not be here. The same goes for my roommates, and all my other senior friends. I can't believe I have a year left at Clark- where did it all go? Can this weekend just last forever?
Variant, you've kept me sane. You kids have gotten me though some of the hardest days I've had at clark, and have the insane ability to change my mood and my day within a few short hours. When people yesterday on tours were asking me why I love Clark, and what my favorite part is, I can't not smile and say that its you all. I can't even begin to put into words how much I love all of you and how much you all mean to me and how much you've all changed me so much this year.
I'm telling myself that we will all see eachother all summer long, and that chicago isn't that far away, and that nothing can ever change how much we all love eachother. <3.
