Open the gates and seize the day...

So, as I sat there at the Board of Trustees dinner, watching the video on why Muhlenberg is awesome, it finally hit - I'm a senior. I'm a senior and in three weeks I'm graduating...

...and then the flood gates opened...

Yeah. So, as we sang the Alma Mater, tears streamed down my face while Dana tried to tell me it was ok and that the dessert bar was up next...LoL

Up until this point, I haven't really had to worry about the immediate future, so I've been ok. But now, knowing that I won't be walking through those Red Doors again next year - it's finally hit. For the last four (pretty much straight through) years, Muhlenberg College and Allentown, PA have been my home. To leave it is a pretty big deal...

Like everyone else, as soon as I stepped foot on campus, I knew this was it. This is where I wanted to spend the next four years of my life...on a beautiful campus, where everything was within walking distance, and where the bright green lawn (and random red abstract sculpture) was always filled with tanning students and ultimate frisbee...

When we came for THROUGH THE RED DOORS, I begged my parents to let me accept my application that day so that I could proudly wear the red and gray ribboned name tag.

And, let's be real, as fed up as I have gotten at the bubble, and as many times as I wanted to just leave - I have had such wonderful opportunities that helped me grow and helped shape me to be who I am today. Getting accepted into the CP is mainly because of everything that I've done at the Berg, and for that I'm grateful.

So thanks to all my friends and professors for all their love, support, and guidance over the last four years. I am eternally in your debt.
