I graduated exactly one month ago. I graduated again, twice more, today. The best part was the "souvenir" I got myself. The CW people were dismantling the walls and I got myself one of the panels of the Rockin' Word Wall because nobody exactly wanted them, which I think is a shame. Those panels are the trademark of the class and it has my hand print and handwriting on it.
I got what they referred to as the first panel. Julio calls it his panel because of the border of masking tape he overwrote on. It doesn't matter much because it's no longer at the back of the classroom; it's on the wall beside the door of my bedroom. Now I could wake up each morning with proof that freedom of speech does exist, through hilarious and inoffensive words written by the people I'd love to see again.
I was pining for that thing. I stare at that specific panel everyday, before class, reading what the people write on it because it's the closest one to where I'm seated. I don't know if it's just me but everything they write on it is witty. The best thing scribbled on that oversized piece of yellow paper, in my opinion, would have to be this:

"What power would HELL have if those here imprisoned would not be able to dream of HEAVEN?"
-Morpheus to Lucifer, "Sandman, Preludes & Nocturnes"
-Morpheus to Lucifer, "Sandman, Preludes & Nocturnes"
I don't know who scribbled that, probably the older people. I don't think I've ever read graphic novels but the truth in that statement is amazing. There's also this other thing written in blue ink. The "War Is ____" epidemic is all over the Rockin' Word Wall.
WAR is WOMEN.
And then under it, in a darker shade of blue, was an arrow and an adjective....
misogynystic
I just find it all hilarious. Everybody was just unconstrained and it was beyond great I got a concrete reminder of their openness. It's all done and over now but I'll stop brooding over that. I learned a lot from the CW people and I'm just happy at the thought of their existence. Now I have to look elsewhere for learning. I welcome myself to the rest of my life. How exciting.
I'm well aware this doesn't concern anybody but I think this is a good thing. I haven't posted in my WordPress blog in a while and it'll be easier for me to just put everything on ICM instead of switching constantly to other blog platforms. Cheers for a real plethoric future.
And cheers for the rest of the summer, my non-CW summer.
