No More Scrabble

It's hard to believe that a year has passed since I graduated from college. Not that I haven't been busy in the last year. Life has become much more complicated, but naturally, much sweeter. With each new challenge and each new obstacle a fresh flavor and perspective accompanies it.

All that said, one thing, more than graduation photos and 'I got a job!' posts on Facebook, is marking the one year anniversary of my graduating from Maryland: no more Scrabble.

I play Scrabble on a more-than-daily basis with a close friend in order to maintain my sanity while away from all things familar and comfortable. Unfortunately for me, Scrabble on Facebook is not available to people outside of the United States.

In order to access this quite exclusive service, I use my University of Maryland accounts to connect through a VPN to connect to the Maryland network; thus, I can connect to 'American' internet and have access to Scrabble.

Now that it has been a year since graduation, my access to University of Maryland is being cut off. As a result, no more Scrabble until I get home. How poetic. Frick.
