So I officially had some rest over the last week. The semester ended with the normal routine of finals, papers, stress, and more stress. But as all the work faded, the smiles and laughs began to surface around campus and in my classrooms. I found myself sitting at home, not having work to do, and not quite knowing what to do with myself. Should I actually go out guilt-free with my friends? I’m kidding, of course; classes are not always stressful, and there are plenty of times for play during the semester. It just happens to be those few tension filled moments (mid-terms and finals) where I, and so many others, happen to forget that moments of play ever existed and begin to wonder, “How did I get here?” But after trudging through, relaxation was wonderful over the past week, and I am officially ready to start May-term tomorrow. Here we go again!
