Out of State Experience

So I had the weirdest thing happen today. I was studying for my econ exam last night and didn't get too much sleep. I woke up to find a grey, rainy morning - lovely. The two cups of tea I had this morning provided enough caffeine for getting through my morning exam, but I was kinda groggy the rest of the day. So I was working in the library and I got up to leave. I saw someone who looked like Barb, and for a minute I was back in Cambridge. I was heading home to Lowell, where I would meet my blockmates for an early dinner and then some Nintendo or Sex and the City before studying. Maybe it was because I was so tired, or maybe it was because everything reminded me of Boston today - the grey sky, the rain on the brick sidewalks, the feeling of dragging yourself to class without very much sleep...weirdness. I swear, I was CONVINCED I would walk out the library and see Sever Quad, or I would turn the corner and see the Harvard Book Store or ABP. I need sleep.

It all just reminded me how great college was, and while grad school is fun and all, it's just not the same. Ah, reminiscing about the past. Ok, I'm done now.

Anne, I was in Lamont the other day studying statistics and I felt like I was right back in college...only I wasn't. :( There's no Out to Lunch or lingering dinners in Lowell House. ..sigh.
