[Stu]-Dying

My thoughts in the moment, for what they're worth:
-The last day of classes is like one final surge of energy and excitement before the campus descends into a melancholy silence of studying and finals.
-I both like and dislike this 45-50degree weather we've been experiencing.
-While it is nice to not have my nose freeze off my face when I step outside...
-it also does not feel as if Christmas, Winter and break are approaching, simply because the weather has not yet truly changed.
-I mean, 55 degrees and breezy?  Seriously, Grove City?
-I have decided that I am not at all sad that classes are over,  even though these are my last Fall classes.  I have more classes in the Spring to look forward to.
-I refuse to mourn leaving college behind until I've actually left it!
-My roommate and I were up too late last night...talking about pianos! 
-Can you say 'weird'? 
-We are *such* music majors.
-I could really learn to hate this desk chair...as I already feel as if I've been sitting on it for days, as I make my piles of flashcards
-Running at 9:30 is much more pleasant than running at 6:30...another bonus of classes being completed!
-A classic line of student around this time of the year…
"Studying is just 'dying' with an 'stu' attached…"
-Calvin and Hobbes cartoons fit some of my feelings so perfectly:
Now this is a great idea...

I really wish I was brave enough to do this on one of my finals...
-Christmas Dinner in the cafeteria is such a win!
-Steak?  Yes, please.
-and gingerbread cookies! 
-In the big picture, I could fail all my finals, and the world would still go 'round.
-I'm not worried.
-(Calm down, Mom.  I'm studying…)  :)
