Post-Grad Postcards

Max Coolidge Crouthamel (M.Arch I ‘25)
A lot of things are better about being out of school. I’ve been getting paid for full-time work this summer — that’s a huge economic transformation. I bought a couch and everything.

I miss a bunch of folks. Partly it’s missing specific people, and partly it’s missing that big, messy group of folks that we just knew really well. *Aniruddh Sharan (M.Arch II ‘25)* Suddenly, the chase is over. Suddenly, there is no other goalpost to chase. Suddenly, you miss that damn goalpost. From now on, its just you in an endless field. You just gotta run and trust that you’re headed towards the goal — a goal without any goalpost. *Kristen Perng (M.Arch I ‘25)* Yale took away HBO, NYT Cooking, and Adobe but I’ll always have YSoAcial! *Alfonse Chiu (MED ’25)* Greetings from the imperial core, where the old real estate market is dying, and the new property regime struggles to be born; now is the time of monstrous hustle. Drink all the Thursday lecture reception alcohol while you can — booze elsewhere is mad expensive yo. *Alice Cochrane (M.Arch I ‘25)* Hours spent lunching — what a luxury to opt for the solid food section of Atticus — with the stragglers in the baking hot sun outside the gallery. Why didn’t we do this all the time? All of what time? Right.
Another pain au chocolat, an Arnold Palmer — it’s amazing what you’ll order when you don’t need to stay awake all night.
In New York it appears that the luxurious lunching continues, though now there is the option for dinner, after work, and finally nobody has any excuse to leave early.
