i feel so free
Today was the last day of classes for the spring semester—and, as a senior, the last day of classes for my undergraduate career. So, after my very last class, a seminar-style class on modern drama, I texted my wing’s01 a wonderful Next House subcommunity where I live called 4W, or the Shire. Discord asking if anybody wanted to take some photos together. And so we did!
It’s been a long semester full of lots of surprises, both pleasant and unpleasant, and there are many thoughts and feelings I have about the end of this chapter, but, in this moment, I am just so purely happy to be done02 I've got a final, but I don't need it to graduate, and I'm sure it'll be fine regardless. and to have made it. I am so grateful to have changed and grown and learned, and to have had so many lovely people around me while doing it.
So, here I am. About to be an MIT graduate. What a lovely surprise.
