End Of Semester Blues
Emily Kaye

Wow. As Senior Year creeps around the corner, I am overwhelmed with emotions. Coming back from Copenhagen this semester made the past four months vanish in a blink of an eye. The months were filled with so much happiness and love while spending time with friends and also delving even more into my passion of Communications. It's terrifying, but also so exciting the future is so near, but I am not nearly ready. I can barely wake up for my 8:30 so how am I supposed to wake up for my internship this summer, let alone my future full time job. But alas I need to focus on the present and the upcoming year of college, Senior Year. College has been so formative so far, intellectually, socially, and emotionally, which makes me even more excited for what the next year holds.

As I slowly finish up this college year of my life, I am reminded of so many things. First of all, how fortunate i am to have an education. Second of all, my incredible support system of amazing friends and family who I have unconditional love and care for so deeply. And lastly, the abundance of opportunity college provides. Opportunity to pursue your passions. To delve into deep relationships with others. To understand yourself and your worth. To gain more independence than you have ever had before. And to truly live in the moment. While I have to hit the library and study for my immense amount of finals, I am also going to work so hard to cherish these last 2 weeks of Junior year. Senior Year is almost here. Wow.

Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Cambio

Singing is something I do all day, every day. It doesn't matter where I am or who's around. If I feel like singing, I'm going to. It's probably annoying sometimes, but I don't care -- I love to sing! If I'm not singing, I'm probably humming, sometimes without even realizing it. So as someone who loves to sing, these are some of the feelings and thoughts I have probably almost every day.
