Freshman year, Ashley arrived at Mary Baldwin Cultege with great expectatiuns and hated breath, as her father limped away from her dorm after lugging up her 250 pound trunk up a flight of stairs. Her mother waved a tearful goo d bye, as her brother yelped cheers of glee — Ashley was stuck and suddenly, the visions of grand ure became re- ality. After a few iveeks, Ashley became fast friends with her roommate as a result of clinging to each other through numerous unpresidented experiences. The days sped by. and now Ashley is a Junior with the status . ymhol of a class ring, and the challeng- ing adventures have become a boring routine. With a shock. Ashley realized that she was more than half way to graduation — Where did all those days go? And WHAT IN THE HECK AM I GOING TO DO WITH THE REST OF MY LIFE BARMN!!!BARMN!!!BARMN!!!BARMN- !!!BARMN!!! Suddenly, her nightmare was interrupted — had some male guest pulled the fire alarm again? No, it was Monday morning and with a jolt, Ashley realized that she only had 23 minutes to make it up to Deming for another one of Dr. Echol ' s 8:30 am art classes. After dragging her limp and sluggish body up the infamous mountains of Mary Baldwin she made her way into Room 104. All through class, her concentration was disrupted by images of the prophetic dream. What am I really going to do with the rest of my life? Suppose I become a bag lady? How did this happen — and where did all those blistful days of yester year go? The sound of her classmates tromping out of class jerked Ashley back to reality. As she pushed the glass doors to Deming open, Ashley realized that the Rosemarie Sena Center and Life Planning Center were only a few steps away, just like graduation. Glancing uneasily down at her watch, Ashley noted that she had an hour until her next class. Now the an- swer must be rendered, should she go back to her room and take that coveted nap or actually do something construc- tive? Each step towards the Sena Center represented a change of mind and a growing feeling of fear and desperation in the pit of her stomach. A cool spasm in her shoulder jerked her head around, and there she was standing face to face with the center. Shear panic gripped her whole body as the teasing rays of the sun filtered through the omnious building. The white stairs began to lash out at her like a possed demon of reality. Then it hap- pened, with no explanation, Ashley ' s con- scious took over her brain and she began to ascend the stairway. At the top of the stairs she peered through the glass door as her hand automatically gripped the cold door knob. Timidly, she ventured into unknown territory.
