I'm having a really hard time waking up and doing work lately. I was thinking last night and as much as I am ready to be done with school, I also really don't want to leave. I was absolutely miserable for my first 2 years at Smith but the past 2 have been the best of my life. I've become friends with some of the greatest people I will ever meet and they've become like a second family to me. We've gone through things together that I' haven't gone through with anyone else and I really don't want to say goodbye to them. I wish I could take them with me so we could spend the summer driving up the coast and listening to music and taking about weird stuff that pretty much only come up in conversations between Smithies, like heteronormativity and Brazilian bikini waxes. I'm going to miss being able to walk down a floor or wander a few doors down to talk and hang out. And I'll miss doing ridiculous things like getting dressed up to do nothing but watch Sex and the City and drink Cosmos. It'll be hard being far away but I know that whenever any of us needs anything all we'll have to do is pick up the phone and we're there for each other through thick and thin. It'll just be the adjustment that's the tricky part...
Note to self: don't wear eye make up to graduation.
