Getting Closer to the End

We made it! Today is April 26th, better known on UNC’s campus as LDOC. After a junior year full of ups and downs, we reached the end. I think it went by much too quickly. In two weeks, I’ll be saying goodbye to some close friends, watching as they scatter across the country to start […]

Channeling My Inner Child
