December Musings

I feel washed in the realization that I have one week of school left... not just until Christmas break or summer break or until I take off for a semester abroad (although I am taking off to travel abroad), but until school is done.

Nineteen year later...whabam...college graduation.

I don't deny that graduate school may be in my future, not my immediate future, but nonetheless in my future. But at least for the next little while, I'll read whatever it is I myself feel compelled to read. I'll come home at the end of the day not to mounds of homework, but to my own creative impulses. I might even get to go skiing every single weekend, because I might in fact be able to go out to the slopes without blowing of 7 other "obligations."

Not to say that I don't look back on school... life for that matter... with a reminiscent feeling. What can I say, life has been and is good! But I'm ready for the change. And even more so, I'm ready to wander around Argentina. Yep, a life of backpacking in Patagonia, sunbathing on the Atlantic Coast and catching up with old friends seems downright nice in this given moment.

Cheers to freedom, simplicity and possibilities!
