I see the light!!!

Four weeks, and counting...I think I can, I think I can, I think I can. I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. It still seems like a speck compared to the work-load I have in front of me, but at this point, I'll take the speck. This week is only two days, and I am busting my rear so that I have NO (zero, zip, zilch, nada) homework over the Thanksgiving break. I am not touching anything having to do with academics for 5 days straight. Oh my gosh, even saying it is delicious. But, that means I have to work extra hard for these next two days to get to that point. I have three major projects due after the break and two of them are nearly done. The third is a group paper (yes, a paper that has to be written as a group--talk about a heinous assignment--makes me need to punch something). I am still waiting on two delinquent group members to send me their sections (due yesterday) so I can compile everyone's writing. Have I mentioned I hate group projects? The two that are almost done are also group projects, but fortunately (thank you Jesus), I have an awesome partner for both. One project is just the two of us in the group. For the other we have a third member who makes me need to scream, of course, but between the two of us, we've managed to knock most of it out.

So, there's my life. One assignment after the other. Most of my social life looks like group meetings and study dates. Sad, sad. I haven't seen anyone socially in the emotional equivalent of 16 years.

BUT...FOUR WEEKS! Four weeks until graduation, the end of all undergrad work forever, and hopefully I will be allowed to have friends again! Hooray! So, not that there are very many of you reading this, but for those that are, my apologies for going AWOL this semester. I plan to resurface some time around mid-January. :)

Well, I gotta get after the pre-Thanksgiving work-load. This Little Engine That Can is gonna keep chug-chug-chugging along. The top of that mountain is within reach!

Much love,
Heather

  1. So I guess I should feel extra special to have seen you on occasion. I always feel special getting your company, but I did not realize how exclusive that group of a few you have given time to. Thank you. I love you, and always enjoy your company.

    P.S. I am super proud of the hard work and the accomplishment of getting your degree you have done.

  2. Are you going to the graduation ceremony? I've decided to do the department ceremony, where they actually photograph you accepting your fake diploma. If you're doing any of the grad ceremonies, let me know and I will be there! I'm proud of you!
