After School Fun! (Written in 2015)

It has been over a year since I was last in Valencia, Spain with the IRES group and our mentors. Life seems to have taken a complete turn since then.
Once I got back to the metroplex, summer seemed to end very abruptly and school picked up with just as much speed. It was my last semester before graduation and the workload was substantial. However, with graduation being the light at the end of the tunnel, time flew by! The exception being a few hours leading up to the many final exams, presentations, and project deadlines that seemed to drag on in a tortuous state of lack of sleep and sometimes lack of preparation. But finally, Graduation!
