In awaiting


who would've guessed that my days are numbered? In two more weeks it would be finals, literally the final showdown before all things can be called over. The countdown to the G-day has been the only thing hovering on the minds of numerous seniors, myself included. Perhaps it's senioritis on a high, many of my classes are practically empty, students walking around in a stoic stupor, and lack of sleep are just a few of statements used to describe us. I've only had 5 hours of sleep last night, that's 3 more than my friends. And my day has just begun. After this 9-12 class, i have a group meeting for Theo, and later today I'd have to prepare what is needed for the countless presentations next week.

So yes we are in potentia. In moving towards a goal that many of us have been waiting for all our lives. from the kinetic statement i found myself in at the beginning of this year, i have finally realized that things are moving so much faster now and time no longer feels like 24 hours but shorter. This is a solstice. Time is a luxury many of us dont have anymore. As we wind down to the final stretch we experience the pressure of deadlines and final projects.

My next few months have planned to the letter. February is the most hectic. March winds down my academic career until the 28th. Then April are just a series of voluntary events. After that, who knows? My year seems to find its culmination in April.

After April, what do I do? What can I do?

...a job?
...a mini project?
...to travel?
...to apply in NYC?
...to write?

what...??
