Dearest Dearests

So Chris Frank just left. An emotional moment to say the least. Love you C-Frank-explains-it-all.

Anyway, first and foremost I want to congratulate everyone on this blog on a job very well done. We've made it my friends, now we must go where no man has ever gone before, that is, we must go out and live what we were born to do. I hope everyone does great things.

I'm watching the Lost finale right now and honestly this show fucking sucks. Its a bunch of unbelievable, convenient, unrelated phenomenon summing to one really shitty drama. Unnecessary aside.

Onto some of my quotes from today, recorded gracias a Gyles K. Daniel.

"I was so depressed all yesterday and today. College is over, life just goes downhill after college."

"I wish I had done 5 years."

"The Handsome Men's Club will never die."

But we mustn't dwell on the past, we did what we could, we lived it up while we were young, and fuck y'all I'm still gonna live it up. Jenna tried to tell me last night that partying and smashing aren't all there is to life. I disagree whole-heartedly. The one thing I learned in Spain, legitimately, is that there is more to life than working all day. Actually, those were the closing lines from the professor during la ultima clase de historia medieval.

But enough life lessons, I'm only 22, what do I even know?

Kyle says I'm supposed to write about myself so here is me: My name is Eric, in case you haven't figured out who this is yet, I was born in Lancaster Pennsylvania, one of the cutest, most adorable towns ever (not biased at all, I swear), and I hope to return there some day. It embodies who I am very well: clean, a little old-fashioned, a lot of German-Americans, pretty much 50-50 in terms of political ideology, people there love good beer and cars. I don't think I've changed too much since High School, except for having much shorter hair and a few more notches on my belt. My favorite thing to do in the entire world is to go to the gym, it has been for a long time, and it's a time-consuming hobby. During the past 4 years there is not a doubt in my mind that I spent more time in Ritchie and the ERC than studying. I just finished up a B.A. in Commercial Spanish and a B.S. in Physiology & Neurobiology. I don't think I learned a single new thing about the Spanish language in all of college, just refined my skillz, but definitely learned a good bit about biology. Spanish classes (shout out to Resrie) were 438103743x better though.

Next year I'll be at GWU, studying medicine, ballin out, fucking bitches, takin out loans in place of making money. Props to Obama for shortening how long I'll have to pay back my student loans, and on lowering the percentage of my salary I'll have to dedicate to paying them back. But first I gotta make it through this summer. I strongly suspect it will be a dull one, filled with lots of early nights and beers on this couch I'm sitting on right now (drinking a beer ironically).

That's all for now.

Eric

PS - Do hard things!
