Went to collect my blue bathrobe/Japanese kimono (also known as the absolutely unshapely, sexless and unattractive commencement gown. It has shoulder pads – oh the atrocity) this afternoon. I refuse to believe I am graduating and I am going to attempt to deny it until the very day collapses on me like a breathless heap. Was enviously eyeing the little newbies traipsing about in their giant-sized tshirts and shorts, tiredly brandishing their mascots for camp and moving from place to place in a herd of cheesy similar colours. I thought that it was only yesterday where there I was, all excited about a new life and happily making tons of mistakes along the way? (I considered that making my mark.) Oh right, no; that was 4 frigging years ago. Sheesh can’t deny how old you are when you look at it that way. I wana be a clueless freshie again. And yet there I was, grabbing my graduation gown and teddy/lion (which I LOVE by the way; it’s so nice and soft and just the right size to clutch to your chest like a young graduate in her desperate attempt to regress back to her childhood). MAJOR generation gap. Well. Guess it’s time for us to ship our old/(I’m still young) asses outta there and herald in the new and promising generation. Pffft.

Europe trip update? Maybe some other time.
