R-O-C!
Finally made it up to see Maya’s cat, family, and hometown for a few days this Fall Break before coming home…the most relaxing weekend I’ve probably had throughout all of Cornell :) Maya and I kept joking about the “exciting things” we did in Rochester… so here they are. I thought they were exciting.
Day 1: garbage plate from Penfield Hots (pretty sketch), go...

Class of 2011 Graduation is tomorrow!?
I can’t believe that I will be saying goodbye (in Ithaca, at least) to some of my favorite people of all time TOMORROW!

I know that I complain about having too many senior friends, but I’m so glad that I know you all. You...
