FAREWELL PHOTOS: PART 1

Japanese Civilization

TA (Teaching Assistant's) the standing blond guy, 2nd from the right.
Yes, he looks young. He's still a student.

Post-grad I think.

Sociology

TA's the guy with the blazer and jeans.
One of the nicest TAs I know.

And never thought I'd feel this way,

And as far as I'm concerned,

I'm glad I got this chance to stay..

Farewell Pictures Part 1

Ibrought my camera to recitation today to take class pictures.
"Hie, my name is Stephanie, and I'm an exchange student from Singapore. It has been a great semester, and I'll be leaving this May. I was wondering if we could all take a class photo together." .silence.
(how in the world will they react?!)

Then, unexpectedly, smiles appeared on faces.
"Sure", "Oh I didn't know you were an exchange student!", "How cute.."
ahahhahaa. thank you for the great pictures.

Studying here in Penn has been a great exprience.
And as much as this phrase has been used time and time again,
Time really flies.
Soon, I'll be making my reverse trip across the Atlantic,
with a heavier bagful of memories, experiences
and of course, a heavier self.
