senior year.

I heard this quote today, and loved it.

"We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for..." {Dead Poet's Society}

I am excited to begin this final semester of my senior year. My shelves are full of books, my teapot is at hand...and the weeks ahead are full of work, yes...but anticipation as well.
