It Had Flowers...


As of right now there is no longer a tree outside my window. I woke up to the sound of chainsaws and looked outside and thought for a moment that they were only trimming some of the branches, and then they bit into the main trunk, and now the tree is gone.

It bothers me. The tree wasn't the healthiest on campus, it had a branch or two that were maybe dead, but it had green leaves all over it, and even a few flowers, and it was my tree, right outside my window...

I don't know what they'll do with the spot now, but surely even a struggling tree with a nice wood shape would have been better than an empty circle of mulch?
