I think this is one of the more sinister pictures I have taken throughout this whole process. It may be the look in by eye, it may be the clear tiredness in my face, or it may be the classic "evil twin" facial hair I am rocking. Something I have noticed throughout this stressful time of the year for us college kids is the overall characteristic of time. Time is a crazy thing. It moves at the same speed, and yet we feel like days "fly by," or that certain moments in our lives last forever, as if time was slowed down or even stopped just for us. Obviously, this isn't true, but we can't help feeling that way. What I've noticed about finals over the years is that, within a week, we have to cram a couple months worth of knowledge into a couple of essays, bubble sheets, and performances, but the week is still just a week. We stress out that we only have a week to do all of this work, but as quickly as it comes, it's over. At the end of the week, we're reeling, but we can't help but notice that it came in like a lion, and out like a lion with its mane all messed up. The moral of the story is that the lion lived, and the gazelle didn't sleep a wink that night.
