Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow

 BYU Education Week: Day Last

 

 

Today's tree of knowledge was actually a treefort of knowledge.  Not being an arborist* (*someone who likes Arby's and trees) I am not able to tell you what particular brand it is.  I did observe lots of trailing weepy branches that fall in a private sort of way around the gnarly trunk.  So yeah, I learned some stuff hanging out here today.

I also learned that I am not the only infidel sneaking caffeine onto this campus.  Someone actually brought this inferior Pepsi product into the Marriott Center. 

I'm sad/happy to leave BYU and fly home. 

• Sad because I won't be able to go to the Bookstore and buy another chocolate, caramel, pecan "Myrtle"
• Glad because I won't be able to go to the Bookstore and buy another chocolate, caramel, pecan "Myrtle"

 
 

• Sad because I love learning from teachers with great minds and powerful spirits
• Glad because my brain is so full it is making my hair fall out

 

• Sad because I love Utah in the summer
• Glad because fiery Arizona is home

 

• Sad because it is fun to have my Mom for a roommate
• Glad because it is more fun to have my husband for a roommate

 

 
 
 
 

• Sad because I won't be able to hang out with my middle child and his plethora of awesome friends

•  Glad because my youngest two are at home with a friend-plethora of their own

 

And oh so glad I didn't have to take any finals.
