My dearest Tufts students (and Nana),
I am SWUGging out over here!!! Apparently there are only five weeks left of school, meaning that for one-quarter of the Tufts population, there are only five weeks left of college. BRB while I go curl up with my body pillow and cry to the sweet sound of Joni Mitchell à la "River" (1970).
“I wish I had a river so long / I would teach my feet to fly / Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on / I made my baby cry.”
OK, I’m back. And I brought with me a brand new attitude and a fair amount of Trader Joe’s wine. Five weeks is enough time to cross everything off of my SWUG-et list before Graduation night. Who’s with me?! Joni??
