What constitutes normalcy? Sure our campus is returning to classes and people seem to be settling back in to the routine around here, but is this normal really? The news and media keep sayin that VT in on its way to healing and getting back normalcy. I am not so sure that there is such a thing. Personally I go to classes and go out with friends and spend time with them as I did before 4/16/07, but its not like before because of the simple fact that ever present in the backs of our mind are the events of last week. How couldnt they be? The media still hangs around campus to a certain extent though it has thinned out mostly, but nevertheless they are a constant reminder. I mean there are signs on every hall saying to the media to keep out and give the students and faculty a breather. As much as the media has "tried" to help by covering the story and updating us on new developments, I feel that some of the time they do more harm than good and just serve to keep the wound fresh. All in all, as I discussed with my cousin also a Tech student yesterday, we are just so glad to be back at Tech. There is not place we would rather be and no greater school in our eyes. "We are the Hokies, We will prevail, we will prevail, we will prevail, we are Virginia Tech."

Pray for all of Virginia Tech and the people who had to experience this monsters atrocities.
