FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK
FOR
THE RECORD: Reality has finally hit...hard
So I have my cap, gown and tassel...I guess the whole graduation thing
is just a bit closer than I thought. As I'm sure some of you out there
are filling out evaluations, finishing projects, studying for finals and
applying for jobs, I can say that I understand. At the beginning of the
fall term, I was incredibly excited that I was a senior; it was about
time. By the time, the spring semester started, I was giddy.
Reality has finally hit...hard. Now, I realize that within 28 days, I
will no longer have to buy books or worry about which final to start first.
I won't have to memorize chemical formulas or write papers about theories.
I will have to get an apartment, a new (and somewhat more professional)
wardrobe and (gulp) enter the working world. While I'm still counting
the days, I'm both nervous and excited to see what lies ahead.

Sturges, Temple '08 (for another 28 days!)
