There's nothing like celebrating two indepence days in one week. haha. I was in Canada for Canada Day on July 1. "Oh Canada. Our home and native land!" Not that I really celebrated that. I think I'm going to join all the crazies downtown at the Arch for Fair St. Louis. There is a free concert by Hootie and the Blowfish (so random) and then the big ( Read more... )

It is sad, I know, but I am so excited to start work. I have been getting so bored during the day with nothing to do. It will be so much better when I actually have work to do ( Read more... )

I just got back from going out to Cicero's, Blue Hill, and Halo Bar. Crazy night. But fun! I graduated from college today. It is so weird. I have my diploma. I'm supposed to be qualified ( Read more... )

I am currently studying for my last final that I will ever take at Wash U. I just printed out my last paper, and I'm also about to email my take-home exam. I can't believe I only have one thing left. Unfortunately, I also procrastinated all week and am incredibly unprepared for this final in Primate Biology. I'm going to try to study for another ( Read more... )

Tomorrow (well today, actually), is my last day of classes at Wash U. Where in hell did the past four years go!?

Craziness.

And busy, too. 2 papers and an exam just for tomorrow. Done with the papers, but still need to study more for the exam. Then it will be time to kick back, look back, and perhaps party. haha.

What if everyone who always told me that college would be the four best years of my life, the people who I always thought were lying, turn out to be right?

I think I will be avoiding Bowles Plaza for the rest of the year. I walked by it today to have the reminder that I will graduate in 46 days. I don't think I need a constant reminder of the fact that I am supposed to leave college and enter the real world increasingly soon every day ( Read more... )

It is so weird to think that I am now more than halfway through my last semester of college. I had my last midterm today. I will be getting my thesis comments back on Wednesday morning. My advisor has glanced through it and things it looks pretty good, so I should be able to turn in my final draft on Friday morning before I leave for spring break. ( Read more... )

I went to church tonight at the CSC, and I've been thinking for the past couple hours. My faith has been a struggle in my life over the past many many years. I was raised going to Catholic school from kindergarten all the way to the 10th grade before I switched to an independent school. I always loved being Catholic, but as I got older, I began ( Read more... )

If I wondered why I hardly got any work done on my thesis this break, here might be a hint:
I slept until 2:00 pm... and I went to bed at 1 am.
Seriously. Who needs 13 hours of sleep? I am so in trouble when I have to start waking up at 9 am again.
