one more thought...

i kind of miss undergrad...

i have great memories of western. everyone i knew and hung out with was in a concentrated area and i could always get a hold of everyone. i had friends at western and friends at the U. i do still have friends at the U, but my ties to western are no longer there. i just have some pictures. and to be fair, i wouldn't have those pictures if HEW hadn't taken them in my last quarter of school. that was really a great quarter. i had NO worries. other than my thesis. i had a radio show, i worked as a greencoat and found out how to break into every building at western. i took a poetry class at the most hippie college in all of washington (yes, more hippie than evergreen-evergreen people are hippie posers if you ask me) for credit to get out of college. i partied, both in seattle and in b-ham. i really had a great time that i will remember for the rest of my life. i miss the people, i miss the times, i miss the sorority dances, i miss making "FRENCH FRIES!!", i miss having three refridgerators (two for beer), i miss cooking dinner and watching HORRIBLE reality tv, i miss that shitty 20 minute walk to campus, i miss only having class on two days of the week, i miss watching the m's lose at the quarterback, i think we all miss the brown beaver, i miss randomly going out to throw the football around, i miss running to pizza hut, i miss going to The Jade Dragon and me only ordering the grilled cheeze and some fries, i miss the wooden arms of the couches that i could pound on to get a point across, i miss the appartment, and i miss hanging out all the time...

(sigh)

i know i'll have a list similar to that for this year. in fact, if i don't remember, someone write a post reminding me to do an end of the year "i'll remember" post for the end of 2004. it's been a great year, but it's had it's ups and down. i know i'll miss be a grad-student when it's all over. but, let's not get even more nostalgic just yet...;)

all your base are belong to me...
