It is finished

My last daily issue of the Collegian ran today. I come to the verge of tears when I think back to all the weeks of this semester. The conflicts, the challenges, the triumphs, the failures. All of it, an incredible time.

I still have trouble believing it all. Hell, I often thought I'd never make it this far. But then, there were times when I was in high school when I thought I wouldn't live long enough to see college, and I was wrong then, too. I'm glad I was wrong.

The Collegian staff is meeting up in a few minutes for one last Hurrah down in Aggieville. I'm not going to get drunk, just have some fun in general and toast everyone with a Guiness. I graduate in a little over a week, I just have to make it through that week alive, first.

Here goes something.
