common ground is over, and i'm so sad. a week hardly felt long enough. it didn't feel like it started until wednesday and it's already over. i met so many crazy amazing people and experienced so much. i got to silversmith! and i spent every minute of the past 7 days with one of my best friends. it's been amazing. it feels like the end of something great, but maybe it's just the end of the beginning. i've learned so much, maybe i'm just beginning a new phase of life. i'm so excited to keep progressing, but i just want to cry because it's all gone.
