The Light at the End of the Tunnel

We draw closer to it with every waking moment. Our minds are cramming whatever last-minute information they can grasp, so they can be spit back on a sheet of paper. Our fingers type away vigorously on our Apple keyboards. We pace, back and forth, trying to relive ourselves of the end-of-term stress. We feel trapped in a void of darkness, when, from out of nowhere we see it. The light. The happiness. The relief. The freedom. The long-awaited winter break is nearly upon us.

  1. It’s really surprising how fast the first semester of our college lives is coming to its end. I came into college not really knowing what to expect after a year of an extreme case of senioritis and not doing anything. But I found ways to balance school work with fun, and found this semester enjoyable, especially with CHC. The picture you posted is pretty much how I’m feeling right now–just 3 finals to conquer then I’m back to being lazy!

    • I think that light is the only thing keeping everyone going. This semester has been meaningful to me in many ways, ranging from the material I learned to the new experiences I had, but I can’t wait until winter break comes. But you know what they say: “You can’t have a rainbow without any rain”.

  2. Reading this post made me laugh 🙂 You are right Michael! We are almost there.

    At first glance scrolling through the posts, I thought that this post with “the light at the end of the tunnel” was going to be about death and how you see a flash of bright light when you are dying….But in a way, we are in that near-death situation right now, a week before finals.
