Starting Over Well, it ' s almost here . . . graduation. The end of our college careers. It seems like only yesterday that we first stepped foot on this campus. Everything seemed much bigger then — the dorms, the buildings, even the parking lots. We have all changed so much over the past few years. We ' ve laughed a lot and cried a lot. It was all part of growing. Now, suddenly it seems, we ' re at the end. There will be no more University of Maryland finals, no more College Park happy hours. Long, deep roommate discussions will be more difficult once the miles act as barriers; and parties will be much different without the same old crowd. College brought with it both good times and bad, but they all seem to blend together as the end approaches. Early morning classes will soon be remembered wistfully as we enter the daily grind of the working world; and afternoon coffee breaks will hardly be able to replace the fun of watching the daily soaps. No more will we be able to head for Georgetown in the middle of the week or the Route on a Thursday night. Soon, the traumatic and exciting moments of college will all be just memories. Graduation is viewed with mixed feelings. There is sadness at the thought of saying goodbye to the many friends we ' ve made, and there is joy in the knowlege that it is finally almost over. Most of us are also a little afraid. There is a whole new world ahead of us, and we know very little about what our lives will soon be like. There is also new excitement, however, at the thought of the challenges that now face us. We are moving on. This it is! Soon we will be starting new careers, new lives as adults. Now is our chance to make names for ourselves, to show the world who we are, who we have become. Yes, our days at the University of Maryland are numbered now, and there seems to be so much left to do. All of a sudden we are remembering the many places we never got to go, the many things we never got to do. With these feelings of regret, however, comes a new realization. We have our entire lives ahead of us, and we will never be without things to do. The end of an era is upon us now, an era we will never forget. Our college days are forever en- graved in our minds and in our hearts. And as the end fast approaches, do not forget — the begin- ning is not far behind. 16
