Day Five

Today I am celebrating:

Memories

As the bus turned into the driveway and around the turn around, I could help but let my mind wander as my eyes took in the res buildings, walkways and university. I am leaving, but I cannot forget the past four years. I remember my first look, and the thought of this place being my new home. I remember moving in, and freely wandering the school yard, unsure of where things were, where to go, or even really what to do. It's been a long four years. I wonder how many times I have walked these pathways, these hallways, these steps, and how many more times I will before I call another place home. At least for a time. I heard Yo Yo Ma's 'Hard Time Come Again No More' and thought of the summer before I came, and how it was those memories, those songs that got me through the first year, and defined who I was to those around me.
