Hello stanford campus…i missed you.
I am so happy to get lost in and out of your wonderfully lined streets, cycle back and forth to my beautiful palace and its gurguling fountain, peek at the windows of the impressive students houses on Mayfield avenue, indulge in a chai spice latte at Coupa, take time to reflect next to Rodin’s gates of Hell, attend mind blowing talks all across campus, eat the best cookie in the universe at Fraiche, whisper a secret in the stones at the back of memorial church, meet nobel prizes and modern geniuses for back-to-back coffees, catch up with my fellows and their families, giggle with my evil twin at every corner, jump the joy- without breaking my ankle this time, go overboard at the d.school, buy books and silly teeshirts at the bookstore at twice their regular price, and walk backward, feet naked, on the oval while watching sunset change the colors of Memorial church. Happiness is this wonderful feeling of belonging:)
