To My Fellow Penn Board Inhabitants:

<pre><code> This is it! We have waited, dreamed, and desired for 1.5 months. Words cannot describe it. Mere emotions cannot capture it. I for one am glad to have had the chance to be a part of this process and to have shared it with all the amazing people I met on this board. Whatever happens here, know this: getting here was the journey and getting past it is another one altogether. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!
