January 27, 1999 EDITORIAL Page 5 Indecision, ambivalence plague college daters remember the good old days of dating. I smile when I remember BREEliAN I the simplicity of "going out" with boys during my early teen years, GERIEMAN which I only recently left behind. It was the kind of going out when you didn't go anywhere. And I don't just Editorial mean that you and your beloved couldn't even legally drive to the Columnist theater. It was also very clear that your relationship would not grow into a solid commitment. Now that I have had a taste of grown-up courtship, I value the comfort of those superficial relationships. We are at a dangerous age for dating. We all seem to be walking around in a gray area between a house in the suburbs and holding hands on the school bus. One minute I am looking for wild oats and the next I am looking up a Mr. Right in the phone book. Our parents can no longer dismiss every person we bring home as just a passing phase. But as I have learned, my family still possesses a full tank of "other fish in the sea." I have never been a big fan of the wishy- washy. And now, whether I like it or not, I am living it. I used to be optimistic enough to believe that when the moment is upon me I will know what to do. But as of late, I realized that it is quite possible that I will run back to the playground when I should walk calmly to the altar, or vice versa if the story is to be very sad. My expectations of dating in the adult world are not as certain as I thought they would be. -I blame this partly on the combination of my unhealthy addiction to "A Wedding Story" on the Lifetime channel and my favorite three friends who make life so fun that I almost forget that we aren't picking our bridesmaid's dresses. It is unnerving that we cannot accurately predict when "the one" will amble by our table in the Smaug, and I mourn the loss of the innocence that blocked that very question from my mind. Although "real" love allows for a new breed of happiness, it unfortunately also allows for a deeper definition of pain, and that is something I could live without for the moment. As I strive to join the ranks of the cliche "happily ever afterers," "the apple of his eye," and "worships the ground she walks on," I remember the one about "good things come to those who wait." It is scary to try and find my way in the murky world of indecision that is the new home of love life. Until those shadowy diamond ads that I love so much start to resemble my silhouette, I accept the unwelcome complexity of collegiate relationships, and I will live a life of selfishness with the wish for someone to share it.

here is something about the railroad that strikes a chord within the American conscious. The raw power, the Tromance, the sense of adventure and the storied history all mesh together to form an undeniable impression of poetry in motion. It has been a national obsession ever since the golden spike was driven in at Promontory Point, linking the Union Pacific and Central Pacific and thereby completing the first transcontnental rail line. The frontier was open to expansion and settlement. In the process, the fate of the "wild" west and its original inhabitants was sealed. The United States as we know it could not have come about without it. Communities arose, and towns sprung up with the coming of the rail- road. Once isolated markets were now accessible through the steel lifeline, the only link to the outside world. The glory days of the KM14.,oplo steam locomotive may be VAVMMuiddron.g.?
