Oyez! Oyez! Oyez!

Or, in the common vernacular rather than legalese: Hear ye! Hear ye! Hear ye!

Today I graduated. After four years of learning and growing on two ends of the country, I'm ready for something new! Hillcrest High, Morgantown High, it's been real.

Summer Is

Red toenails and big sunglasses. Morning runs, breathing in the fresh, dewy air. My running shorts, now not only exercise-wear but daytime attire and PJs as well. My hair in a curly mess, relegated to a pile on top of my head. Thunderstorms and ripe strawberries.  Lazy afternoon naps, book lists. Freedom and food and dancing wildly to my favorite tunes. My friends.  Some here, some there, with prospects of many more beautiful days with them ahead.
