Calm before the storm
Right now I basically just have to (magically) complete a bioinformatics project (on who knows what) in a week and write like a 42-page thesis paper on depression. I've never written something so big in my life and really have no idea how to make 10 pages of quality turn into 42 pages of crap. Hopefully figures will be allowed. I have until mid-May for that so that's at least semi-nice.
I also have to really focus on the future as there is a lot of everything going on relatively soon and it's kind of a dynamic time before I'm pretty settled for 4-5 years in grad school. Committing to a school (didn't hear back from BU yet), graduating, moving to LI, getting LI jobs, finding an apartment, figuring out who is living with us in Boston, moving to Boston, starting grad school, etc. It's a lot. Dave needs to focus too because he will need money to survive since Boston isn't cheap and hopefully by summer's end he'll have his debts fully gone and some saved up. I would urge him to at least begin taking college classes but I have no idea how much aid he can get/how to go about getting him loans and that may have to wait until spring of next year once we're semi-situated and he sort of puts more attention on to what he may wanna do with his life.
I've been seeing a lot of old capital-district friends (Davey and Hart) and it's been really nice since basically the RPI scene has been greatly lacking. Can't really see much more of them since semester is hellish but hopefully I can get a few more visits in here and there. Erin also wants to go to Bing for some reason (I guess to basically see Matt...TOO LAZY TO COME TO US!)...but not sure when since we'll both be pretty busy.
It's kinda insane that we're graduating. That definitely hasn't hit me, but I can definitely say I'm ready to leave. This weather also has been royally sucking to the point of being very depressing. It should not be like 30 degrees and snowing in April. :-(
