So it is officially Spring Semester of 2013. And for me LAST
SEMESTER OF COLLEGE EVER! (or at least
undergraduate) Cue the panic. Cue the
excitement. Cue the blind race to the finish. It seems like I haven’t had a
minute to sit down or shut my eyes since early January.
Yet something amazing is happening. I am enjoying every
moment of this semester. The trees are greener, the snow is whiter, the campus
is more gorgeous, every minute is a prize. So I though this blog instead of
ranting about how much I have to do or how scared I am, I will talk about all
the amazing things at Clark that I will miss.
1.
Those few sunny and warm-ish days in between the
freezing cold ones when the whole campus comes alive and students are milling outside.
2.
Spree day. It’s amazing that this year’s was a
hard won victory for the students and we get one more year of this beloved
tradition. As a senior I was not ready to give it up.
3.
The Freud. That statue has become as dear as a
close friend now. Not seeing him every day is a strange thought.
4.
The AC. Yes most of the time I’m there it’s for
work I don’t want to be doing and I hate being there, yet it’s an amazing
place. Everyone working together creates an atmosphere of camaraderie.
5.
The English Department. No I am not just saying
that because this is the English Department blog. Seriously this place rocks.
Visit it sometime. It’s a home away from home.
6.
Jazzmans. Those caramel lattes.
7.
The Dorms. Don’t laugh. At the threat of
possibly being homeless next year the safety of the dorms is amazing. Free
water and heat and electricity. Why does that not happen in the real world? I
am going to live in a box…(moment of panic again)
8.
Free Laundry.
Free WiFi. Free anything.
9.
The JC. I love that building. It’s so majestic
and history filled. I love walking in there.
10.
Gala. It brings tears to my eyes. Every year.
11.
The little center. It’s a dive, but such a well loved one.
12.
The cougar. RAWR
To be continued….
I unfortunately have to go to class so my list it half
finished. I could go on and on. And will do so. Mostly it calms my panicky
state of mind. Feel free to add your own
items to this list. What will you miss?
