Ah, finals week. No classes, but they’ve been replaced by the ever-present nagging voice telling us to study and write that one last pesky paper. A time for hiding out in the dorm and basking in quiet hours. And a time for going to Revolutionary Soup for a well-deserved study break. (And a break from O’Hill, too…) Only three days until I return home! I can’t wait to have a real kitchen again… although I’ll miss my suitemates and being on grounds. I love being around all these beautiful flowers and architecture, and being able to walk downtown to shopping and restaurants.

I’ll also really miss dorm life. I love our little room with its twin beds and desks.
