my inferiority complex might be in danger...

It's not very often that it feels like the universe is working in my favor, but this week has given me some good, solid evidence that I'm doing something right. The week started off with a Monday from hell. I was up until 5 a.m. Sunday-Monday finishing up work on a huge annotated bibliography that I had taken an extension on. I slept for 2.5 hours

Batting it out of the park! Way to go. As a former English major and lover of higher learning, I applaud you. I know how good stuff like getting into your preferred course and acing a paper you had come to doubt can feel.

Woot!

Thanks, dars! I feel like I can't gush to my fellow first-years because we're all so stressed; I don't want to sound like an ass, you know? So being able to gush via LJ is great :)

Also, I'm happy to know that you got a job with a BA in English. And one that actually uses your degree. I will cite you to my students.

As Kate Monster (of Avenue Q) would sing:

"What do you do with a B.A. in English?

What is my life going to be?

Four years of college

and plenty of knowledge

have earned me

this useless degree.

I can't pay the bills yet,

'cause I have no skills yet.

The world is a big

scary place...

But somehow I can't shake

the feeling I might make

a difference

to the human race!"

Oh, dars, you are not the first to serenade me with this particular song... I love Avenue Q! And if you enjoy broadway/musical theater, that's just another thing we have in common.
