Description
I can still remember how eager I was to come to college my first quarter at Western four years ago. I don't think I slept more than a few hours the night before. Not because I was scared, and not because I was nervous. It was because I couldn't wait to explore life through the eyes of a college student.
I didn't believe people when they said it would go by fast. Four years seems like a long time to an 18- year-old. Well it isn't.
I can't help but feel excited when I think that the stories in this issue of Klipsun might help others live life a little more fully during their time in Bellingham.
Sneak a peak at Northwest culture in "Hop- Head Nation." Learn how some locals use Bellingham's natural structures as their own personal jungle-gyms in "Hard-Rock Getaway" or discover what those barefoot people balancing on an inch or so of rope at Boulevard Park are up to in "Walk the Slack Line."
If you can't find a story that grabs your attention in the magazine, then I encourage you to peruse the selection online at klipsun.wwu.edu. There, you might find longboarding is the mode of transportation for you in "Kick, Push and Coast." Or you might decide that the multimedia presentation of one writer's experience in «l "Skydiving with Doctor Death" is an experience worth having.
I've graduated now, and I have one piece of advice for you. Live your life with no regrets. Appreciate the now and don't look back. I hope you find something that catches your attention in this issue. Thanks for reading.
