  • things i will miss...


    late nights of writing--with my computer desk always by a window, i was able to watch the light seep through into day, which was both an amazing and frighteningly stressful wonder


    moments when great questions or ideas or images spark and it's like something breaks free and you learn that you know and can do more than you or anyone else thought you did or could


    being able to rant to professors and spent time just talking in their offices about siblings and parents and life and stuff you talk about with friends


    that feeling of relief and that comes with the discovery that you have classes with the same people


    the comfort of know that there's still another semester, another year


    watching the fruition of years of work and stress and tears and everything good thing towards a goal of which the getting becomes more important than the gotten
