And it was a wonderful night. Seeing the Collegian come off the presses was awesome, as was holding a newly printed one in my hands. The printer is ancient, from '72, so billions of papers must have come off of it.
Incredible.
I love the seniors I shared tonight with so much. And have to admit, I went a little picture crazy. But it's something I never want to forget. They're friends I'll always remember and cherish. Also, thanks to the sports boys, I didn't cry. They had me laughing with their crazy jokes and antics the whole time. It made it seem less like the end of things and much more just like a fun, exciting night. I took dozens of photos and may post a few here at a later point.
I even had a nice chat with Eddie and Kurt on the ride back. And it's so strange how in one semester -- and my last at that -- I became closer to the sports staff and also my desk girls. Makes it so much more of a family.
My only regret from tonight is that I didn't say goodbye to Dave. With all that was going on it just slipped my mind ... :( Hopefully somehow I'll see him again before graduation.
There's two weeks left. The end is near, but it's not here yet.
