'lull'd Kcohdu ' 1 Four years ago, on a hot summer day I stepped onto the Assumption College Campus as a timid freshman; unaware of everything the next four years would have in store for me. Through it all, I have met many incredible people and encountered numerous unforgettable experiences that have made my time here anything but ordinary. I believe this can be said for all of us. As seniors we have been privileged with four incredible years here encountering many amazing people, professors, and experiences which have turned into memories. We will cherish these memories for the rest of our lives. It’s hard to believe that our four years at Assumption have finally come to an end. When I think about graduating it seems surreal. Sometimes I think to myself “Graduation? Me? I’m not ready to be in the “real” world on my own!’1 It seems like just yesterday I was a scared freshman run¬ ning to class 20 minutes early afraid of being late and not getting a seat. Its going to be hard to say goodbye to this place. The place that turned into my home for the past four years. The place that has given me so much. There are so many things about this place 1 will miss: Larry’s crazy jokes, Maryanne’s smiling face, all-nighters that did not involve any school work, walking to class with the snow up to my knees, and the sound of AIM coming from everyone’s room. I will also miss the ability to be able to walk into the next room to talk to my best friend if I’m having a problem. Graduating from Assumption shouldn’t be a scary experience for us. We should be proud we made it this far and look forward to what the rest of our lives have in store. Assumption was just another chapter in our lives. It shaped us into the successful adults we are today. It provided us with knowledge, experience and friendships that we will never forget; and as we all stand together on May 13th, 2006 and throw our caps up in the air, let's remember to keep our days at Assump¬ tion near and dear to our hearts and to always remember to take what we learned throughout these four years here and continue it throughout our lives. Just because we are graduating, it doesn’t mean these four years should be forgotten. The laughter, the jokes, the knowledge, the memories and everything we experienced here at Assumption should stay will us and the joy these things brought to us should be continued all throughout our lives. It is my hope that forty years from now you will open this yearbook, look through its pages and remember the good times you had. I hope you close your eyes and all the memories and laughter that How into your head bring a smile to your face and that your memories and stories of the best four years of your life will be continued.
