Hey, Wow, it has been a long time. I feel as tho I always say that first thing:). I'm really really ready to get out of school this year. It feels like it has gone on forever! Graduation is in 25 days, and I am ready! of course, I still have to finish my independent study stuff, and give 2 more tests, and then write a final, and grade all of that before those 25 days are up, but I'm still excited for it to be over! I did not understand, until this year, the intense longing for that diploma, perhaps because I was coming back to school in both of the other instances. This year is different, however, I know I am going to be back on campus, almost daily next semester, therefore I know that I will not miss the campus. I am sure that I will not miss the school work:). So the longing inside of me for May 29th, is not diminishing, but is rather increasing daily! Oh, if only it was sooner, but then again, I should not be wishing my life away:). Oh Commencement Day, for thee I pine!
