Count my wrinkles real slow so I can hear you whisper the New Hello

So many wonderful things have happened, are happening, and will happen this week.

1. I am writing Me and I am liking what I see.
2. I had chocolate chip pancakes and spinach for lunch today.
3. I had chocolate chip pancakes and eggs for dinner tonight.
4. Bre is almost done with school.
5. At 10pm on Thursday I will be hugging Zak Landrum in the Fresno train station.
6. On Friday I will be having tea with my English friends and professors.
7. On Friday afternoon I will be driving home from Santa Barbara with a long black robe in tow.
8. On Friday night my dear, sweet cousin will graduate Masters College.
9. On Saturday morning I will re-graduate from Westmont. Pomp and Circumstance and a grand ceremony where I march down to the field behind a man in a kilt and pray A. For no wind and B. If there is wind, that he remembered the Essentials.
10. All the things that accompany a graduation.

I'm not excited to say goodbye to Westmont for good, even though I've been living off and on my own for a semester now. It feels like a lifetime. Where was I a year...

Ago, I was waving goodbye to the class of 2008, not knowing I'd be one of them in a short time.

mm. Farewell youth. I can't pretend, anymore.

In college I sported pale-blonde hair and black-rimmed eyes and I mostly staggered when I walked and kissed the sky when I talked.

I'm much more sedate. Sort of. But at least I can still fly.

See you soon, Westmont. See you last, see you first, and see you Forever..
My Beloved Friends.
