And the Curtains Fall, Again Kinda

I'm typing this entry after helping plan out a spring break retreat with my college friends and having spent an entire (non-alcoholic) kickback day with my high school friends. It's been a pretty social day, and I think it's the perfect time to reflect on some stuff. Namely, the first quarter of college. First and foremost, HOLY FUCK. UCSB has been such a huge learning experience. I've put so much effort into trying to improve my study habits. At the same time, I've met so many people and developed these new friendships that I'm so proud of. Also, I've drunk and partied. Shit's pretty gas. As a former mega-stereotypical $TEM nerd, I never thought I would've done those things so early into my college career. But here I am, 4 parties and multiple drink seshes in my first quarter. (I am not an alcoholic btw) Alright, now time to get into the nitty-gritty.  I'll start with the boring shit. ACADEMICS. So, I'm a computer engineer. This fall quarter...

And The Curtains Fall

I thought the yearbook would have been finalized and out by now, and I would've been able to write some deep metaphorical tie-in about how "my last year before really becoming an adult concluded when the yearbook was finalized, perhaps a metaphor of how the year ends when we're able to reflect and smile back at everything." But unfortunately, many boring have happened and the yearbook has been delayed for a whole decade. Well anyways, the yearbook's gonna be out soon. Probably 2 weeks.  YEARBOOK'S OVER. HOLY SHIT. IT'S BEEN A WHOLE G*D D*MN YEAR OF THIS, AND IT'S FINALLY OVER. THE WEIGHT'S OFF MY SHOULDERS.  Well, kinda. The yearbook's finalized. The only thing left to do is wait. The printed book will be out in early October, and the digital version will be out sometime. I have no idea. The new editors-in-chief had no idea we were having a digital release until Monday. Absolutely nuts. Well, I guess that's on me and EIC2 and EIC3. Anyways,...
