Last Day of Our Summer Vacation

I could get sentimental about that. I could write a long post about it. But I think I'll quote instead.

"...But now...everyone felt their term-time feelings beginning again, and they were all rather gloomy and no one could think of anything to say..."

"I have formed my plan, and am determined to enter on a course of serious study. ...By reading only six hours a day, I shall gain in the course of a twelvemonth a great deal of instruction which I now feel myself to want."

Although I hope that it won't be *six* hours a day. Not of rigorous academic study, at any rate. I suppose that, in a way, every minute of every day should be devoted to education...
