today, i have 3 separate lectures i am [voluntarily] attending at 12:30PM, 4:00PM, and 7:30PM. i LOVE having these sorts of lectures available to me in order to expand myself intellectually. not only do i have those, i also need to work on 2 research papers and do some extra work for my sociology of education course. i am thrilled.
the sun and the amazing weather has been beckoning me to come outside and i found myself on the patio at the union early this morning. as i sat there, the incoming freshman-or prospective freshman [i'm not sure which] were pouring out of the union. it brought back memories of my own orientation and the promise of the next 4 years of my life. it's hard to believe it was 4 years ago. i always find it hard to believe that such an amount of time has passed so quickly. perhaps, the passage of time is something that i will never get over.
i will miss this campus when i leave it in may...


all i know is that this month is going to pass quickly enough. if you have the chance, tell me about your plans for april...i'd love to know that everyone else is as busy and delighted with april as i am.
sweeter dreams.

Important please pass forward
Wow, the campus seems amazing! Looks like a dream to me, expanding the mind, meeting dynamic and interesting people and having your finger on the pulse of issues of great social importance.
I, regrettably, did not even finish school - left first week into year 10 (sorry, not sure of the American equivalent as I am Australian) after an extensive history of truancy. Anyway, it's a regret because I never realized my full academic potential, however I do know that life is a continuing lesson and I've learned many important life lessons since then (I am 30 now).
School is a magical time if you can have the maturity to ignore the emotional and hormonal distractions and just be in the moment to extract as much information and expertise as you can from these generous individuals we know as teachers, lecturers and mentors.
One day I will go back to "school" and when I do, I know that I will be confident enough to be authentic with myself and with others and as such, be a reciprocating and open student.
Thanks again for your thoughtful insights.
Regards,
