I woke this morning with a smile. No, really. And this song pounding in my head:
It's summer vacation all over again. I'm back in Arizona on The Keep's spring break. I’m at one of the epic 2003 beach camping trips. All these feelings; they envelope me. I’m surrounded by the feeling of immense freedom. An elephant’s been standing on my chest for the past 4 years and this morning it finally stepped off.
Classes: they're officially over.
My 11-hour days just plummeted to 5. And no more finals; thank God no more finals. All that remains is 3 more months in clinic, an Oregon Board exam, and one last National Board exam. Thus, there's a mere 3 more months to continue on as an irresponsible student. I have to cram as much immature fun into the next 90 days, because once that "Dr." is attached...everything will have to change. A ridiculous amount of liability, no time for video games, and a colossal pile of loans.
So despite the adult world careening toward me, and the safety net of college nearly torn down, I really couldn't be more excited for the future.
