burnt out.

It is not the most wonderful time of the year--Spring is a fascinating season
that produces an abundance of various emotions, fears, cancerous freckles, beach trips,
the Point deadline, proposals and newfound loves, banquets, end of the year huzzahs, etc. etc. etc.

As for the Chimes and Spring connection, it's safe to say that if they
both had a facebook page, they'd probably be in an "open relationship".

Staffers are getting burnt out. There is a loss of motivation.
Does the phrase "senioritis" hit home to anyone?

I am here to remind all of you faithful readers that there is hope.
Why? Well because Sam has a different relationship status as of recent.
Because the new website looks extremely professional. Because
Mike Villa is actually doing his homework. Because Beth continually
beats Kyle at cribbage games. Because the circulation of the Chimes
has increased. Not encouraged? Do you still feel hopeless?

As of this toasty (Big mac word choice) Monday,
we have 25 days of school left in the semester.
(but please don't quote me on that one, because
my mother's text message is the source of that information). WE CAN DO THIS.

I am beginning to feel slightly sad and remorse about
my chimes experience. I believe that this state of mind
always occurs when the end is in site--I can see the finish line.
New staffer positions have been filled.
The future seems bright for the Chimes.

But let's not forget about the here and now.
Let's appreciate the time we have together.
Let's finish strong and set the bar high.

I would like to close this blog with a quote.
