Reminiscing




I have to say, that today I really really miss UD!

I miss freshman year, when I met my favorite roommate for the first time :)
I miss getting up early, with my books in hand and Angels and Airwaves in my headphones, treking to the Perkins Center or the Library to get coffee before class.
I miss spending time with Lisa and our many dive classes and trips!
I miss main street; the book stores, restaurants,clothing shops, etc (including going with Taryn to Dunkin before Ichthyology class!)
I miss living in the towers, and accidentally making burned chocolate (lol Colleen)
I miss the University Garden Apartments, Watching friends, and Taco Tuesday!
I miss the sorority! (especially I weekend and rushing)
I miss CLASS! Especially my wildlife classes filled with friends, crazy dendrology profs, and silly graduate students who make jokes about whales and PBR (hah)
I miss taxonomy
I miss homework (I know, thats a sign that it's time for grad school!)
I miss Smith Hall and Kirkbride, especially in the spring
I miss study abroad trips, especially Costa Rica, and every person who was there
I miss Nancite Beach, and hiking to get there
I miss counting horseshoe crabs and living in Lewes acting like a marine science grad
I miss after-lab Deer Park dinners!
I miss being able to walk home from the bar
I miss people EXPECTING me to be irresponsible at times, and that being okay
I miss 63 New London Road
I miss St. Patty's day at Grottos
I miss coming home on breaks and seeing my best friends
I miss the weekend I met Kurt
I miss going to visit Kurt at West Point
I miss Pitt, camping, and going to Cape Henlopen, Assateague Island, and White Clay Creek State Park to attempt fishing

Now, I can't wait to start grad school and life with my amazing husband-to-be. However, it sure does feel great knowing that after all of those amazing experiences, I achieved what I set out to do while at the University of Delaware, and I had damn good time doing it.

  1. I miss all the stuff you said too (at least the ones where I was involved!!) I miss that night you threw a full grottos pizza on my bed at like 11:30 pm and said "here's a present." Haha best night EVER
