Here Comes the Sun

Hello Friends!

Little darling, it’s been a long, cold, lonely winter.

Well, 3/4 of the way into Spring Semester, spring has arrived! It’s a wonderful day when you know–marked by every type of sport possible scattered down Easy Street, occupation of the Hoval by frisbee throwers, tanners, and passive readers, and that subtle (but noticeable) difference in everyone’s smile that just screams “I’m walking outside without a coat and I’m not risking any major health repercussions.”

While the warming climate does suggest sometimes intimidating impending academic projects: final papers, exams, thesis presentations, it’s hands down my favorite time of the academic year.  This semester brings around a lot of phenomenal programming. The Multicultural Student Organizations put on some really fantastic events, like ExplorASIAn, Noche Latina, and CASA’s Culture Night. Purple Pride Day was just yesterday, wherein Purple Key Society had some awesome stuff on campus, like food trucks in the hoval and little giveaways throughout the day. Things like the Easy Street Fair, where every residence hall house council sets up a fair-like booth, The Pig Roast, and Spring Carnival will come along with spring weekend.

Ultimately, it’s awesome to spend time with wonderful friends, new or old, before the summer.  As a student planning on being off campus for all of next year on the Washington, DC Semester and in El Salvador, this is an incredibly valuable time for me to demonstrate to people how much they have made my experience so wonderful at Holy Cross so far. Here Comes the Sun!

DFTBA
