Not in a Hurry
Sept 20, 2020 | By Serena Puang DC ‘22 + 1
I came across “Not in a Hurry” at an Augustine Collective Conference in January, which now feels a world away. I was struck then by the lyrics because not being “in a hurry” is antithetical to my life at Yale. I am in a hurry! In fact, I rarely even listen to music because I’m in such a hurry that I don’t have time. After quarantine started, my extracurriculars and places to go were gone. I did the math, and between commuting and extracurriculars that no longer existed, I was allegedly saving 23 hours per week, but I was still rushing around.
