Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Saying goodbye to the apartment I lived in for 2 out of my 4 college years was pretty depressing. It’s hard to leave any place that you’ve formed so many sentimental attachments to. Plus the guys and I had some damn badass wall decor going on.

Doesn’t it just scream college? Never again will I have a beer label wall.
I didn’t go to my own senior week and didn’t technically have a traditional college experience since I graduated a semester early, but it’s my friend’s senior week now and I am feeling strangely introspective. College ended up doing more for me than I ever thought possible. I actually never wanted to come to college and honestly thought higher education wasn’t for me. People who know me now find it all pretty laughable. Looking back on the person I was in high school, I still find it completely incredulous that I’ve done what I’ve done and have an amazing academic opportunity/experience ahead of me. Still there is something bittersweet about moving on.

This is the truck of one of the guys I lived with. All packed up to move elsewhere. On top is the crowning jewel of our living room, George the giant beanbag. George, I’ll miss you.
At least I have fried foods to cheer me up.

Before you is a deep fried twinkie, snickers bar, and zero bar. One of those carnival/boardwalk food places opened up by my friend’s house and we couldn’t resist. I don’t usually like twinkies, but fried ones are amazing. The memory is actually making my mouth water a little…
