One more day.
Next Tuesday is my last day of classes. Ever.
Well maybe not ever. I could end up doing grad school at some point. Who knows? But not immediately. Not yet. I need time for my undergrad experience to soak in.
The last links on my ball-and-chain: one Confucian paper, one Christianity test, one Hellenistic final, one Western Civ. final, and one Literature take-home final; and then I am home free. There’s still my pesky capstone to deal with, which is a paper researching the influence of sun cults on early Christianity, but luckily that only requires some editing before it’s complete.
I have to say, my last semester was kind of dull. After taking five Philosophy classes all at once during this previous semester I swore off taking any more. But as a result I got stuck with some pretty uninspired electives and a larger textbook bill. Especially after the school canceled the two courses I anticipated the most- Greek & Roman Tragedy and Critical Studies in Religion. Once those got dropped I found myself scrambling for anything that would fit into my schedule. So my heart really wasn’t into it.
Woe unto me, a Humanities double-major!
