nine days...

day nine: intellectual red carpet

over the past four years, i've had the opportunity to meet/shake hands with/get signatures from/sit it classes with/ and listen to iconic men and women speak. all i can say is that this journey has been quite inspiring [and humbling]. i can only hope to one day contribute [at least half] of what these individuals have already accomplished in their respective fields. for those of you who disagree with the ideologies of some of these individuals, i hope you would still appreciate the fact that it's quite the opportunity to come into contact with world-renown figures. **by the way, if you don't recognize some of them, i recommend you look them up ;)
