			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Despite being frenetically busy with school (tests, projects, homework, doom, gloom, etc), I was recently able to connect with a few old friends who I rarely see.</p>
<p>Really, really good times&#8211;encouraging, yet at the same time a deeper sense of affection that is only built through time.</p>
<p>Reminded me of the value of relationships; recently I heard a quote on the radio: &#8220;Relationships take priority over riches; people are more valuable than accomplishments.&#8221; While there is a balance here&#8211;accomplishments and riches do have value&#8211;it was an excellent reminder to me that sometimes hanging out with a friend is worth sacrificing a letter grade or opportunity to work.</p>
<p>BJ, Emily, and others&#8230; thanks for being my friends and making the effort to connect.</p>
