I shouldn't drink caffeine, but I did and my mind was racing. Perhaps, it's that by this weekend my brother will be a DR. and in twoish weeks I will be symbolically a college graduate.

Although this week has been full of shocks, ups and downs and the usual academic overload (and some confusion) as I walked into the library I thought how much I love my senior year of college. It's already far surpassed my senior year of high school. I fondly remembered ( Read more... )

So I walk down stairs, the downstairs is abuzz with chattiness, arrested development and the smell of cookies. Ah...this quarter is going to be nice. Last night we had an impromptu roommate dinner, later that night we had cookies as planned to catch up with the "roomies" (in quotations, meaning carolyn was along ( Read more... )
