Long Time, No Type

Hello readers, if any are left. Sorry for not posting for such a long time. As you can imagine from your own college days, this is about the time when life gets really busy. Classes are tougher, but for once they are relevant to what you want to do in life, so you want to do well. You are hurtling towards graduation, making sure you have all the requirements squared away. You are looking for jobs and/or future schools. You are trying to figure out what to do with your life.

It's a lame excuse, I know. But in my defense, not many interesting things have happened since my last post. Here are the few that did, though:

  • The 2 feet of snow finally melted!
  • I got a desk in Hammerschlag Hall.
  • I turned 21! (My friends took me out to Dave & Busters, which is basically Chuck-E-Cheese. I won enough tickets to buy a blender. It actually works, too!)
  • I became a senior. I subsequently felt old.
  • I was elected president of SWE at CMU. This is maybe not as exciting as it sounds, since a lot of what I do is email routing. I enjoy it, though.
  • My intended graduation date moved up to December 2010 (3 months away!)
  • I found out this morning I have to give up my desk in Hammerschlag Hall this week. Bummer.
  • I am taking an awesome humanities class called Architecture for Non-majors. It feels more like art than architecture, but I get to work the right side of the brain and express myself by stacking every book in the Hammerschlag A-300 wing and putting a cup of coffee on top.

You've graduated!? Congratulations! I'm enjoying all the thoughts of you as they come--for some reason you're always outside. Radiance is the overarching feeling; your smile, laughter and freckles. How I miss you and yours. Be blessed, Rachael.
