The Future of College

College and the Future have 2 things in common:
  1. The students that go there will create it and...
  2. Anything is possible

Worthwhile Conversations

I find myself holding on to the drunken memories
  that I've had all weekend
Whether with old friends, fresh faces, or total strangers
Over warm up shots, late night beers, or morning coffees
  there were a few good laughs, worthwhile conversations, and "remember when..." talks
  that capture the audiences of all ears
Summed up with a "cheers" the drinks, and the weekends are devowered

Changing Years

Friends always change with the weather
My calendars change years every Fall

Summertime friends drop like leaves from a tree

A few calls or short weekend visits
 Let them hang on by the stalk
But they slowly break off
They are blown away with the cold winter winds
 And every Spring a few less return

Fall is moving in

The cool weather creeps in and stirs the creatures around it
The sun slides behind the mountains
No more sweat-drenched days for a while now

But the blazed trees of reds, yellows, and oranges still keep us warm
These fall flames are closing windows and killing spirits

For some reason, however; I feel more alive than ever
