Reflection

Just came across this blog and laughed out loud reading The List. Definitely check this out if you're in any way a fan of journalism, majoring in the field at a university or currently work for the media.

Other than that, I'm getting really sad to leave my college days behind. My house and my classy roommates had an amazing party last night with all our friends and it was amazing to have so many fun people all together dancing, hanging out, playing games and relaxing in our spacious backyard. I know this isn't the 18th century and we all have cell phones and text messaging, but I know that after Saturday when I walk across that stage to get that diploma, I know things will never be the same again. I will miss walking down the street to find all my friends when I want a big group, late night doughnut runs, the countless coffee dates mid-afternoon in the Eugene sunshine, the late night library cramming sessions with my best friends, laughing so hard my abs hurt, the ease that comes with walking downstairs to your best friends when you're in the mood for company. I'm leaving so much behind, and I hope my life turns out the way I planned it would. Alas, even if it's not the NY Times, I will continue to thrive on my own ambition and set high standards for myself.

Let the crazy, busy grad week festivities begin!
