pub crawls, beers, and finals

so this is it. final stretch. been doing some reflecting on my years at cmu. our last pub crawl was on thursday. our last beers was yesterday. everyone had matching hawaiian shirts with our "tepper mba - '06" embroidered on the pocket. it was both cheesy yet somehow cool. it's so surreal that these people whom i've i've gotten to know over the years...i'm not going to see them walking in the halls anymore. cynthia, the mom of three - she had kids as a teenager and now, after putting herself through undergrad and grad school, is going to be in a high profile management rotation program at amazon. many consultants and ibankers in the bunch. mark is going to a biotech consulting gig in boston, just got his bid accepted for a house. i have such goofy memories of him being silly. yanni and tiny are both in high profile trading jobs. with many classmates, we both cried at our loads of homework together and laughed and out silly antics. "tiny's ass pillow", the eternal girl problems of all the tepper boys, the mundy incident, the boycrazy girls, late nite runs to primanti brothers, "blah" , "erg", "my jeans are so sexy". haha...laughing at everything yanni does. now we all have to put on our grown up masks and behave like adults in the real world. u think we can fool everyone into thinking we are polished and professional? hahah...

for now i'm trying not to freak out about selling my stuff in time and finals. finals have commenced and so i will be mia until may 12th. i feel the stress coming on, but being that it's not a new feeling, i'm ready. see you on the other side...
