endings [or maybe, beginnings]

i've been in school since i was three, but in three days i will be done school. (for i don't know how long).

there's a lot of things i will miss about university, a lot of things learned.
i'm making a running list of these things, random memories, comments, whatever.

- georgia is my favourite font to write essays in.
- "apa owl" is probably the phrase i have googled the most in the past four years.
- the library is a great place to spend any night of the weekend. friday & saturday nights can often be reserved for group work, essay writing, and for finding great new songs on hypemachine in the library
- i can be fabulous friends with people i have very little in common with and very much in common with (and everything in between).
- eating pizza, talking to a friend on the phone & heading to the library at 8:30pm after church can feel like an epiphany, and can be very spiritual.

- all-nighters are instantly associated with cold hands
- being notorious for sleeping in for class, group meetings, placement, the list goes on

- the things associated with school most meaningful are often not classes itself. i'm referencing my involvement with ryerson inter-varsity christian fellowship... totally changed my life every week, every new friend, every new epiphany jesus showed me.

- it is very possible to get A's without A effort.

-social work professors are the most compassionate and most challenging.
 
-some school friends last for 4 days, some for 4 years. all are valuable and important.

- my favourite essay ever written was not for my major. it was for an english class, called  "the art of writing life". it was

on the mountain goats album, the sunset tree. it was entered into an english essay contest (i didn't win). it's posted in this blog somewhere.
