Wind Me Down
so i've finished my thesis presentation outline! this is going to be a kickass topic - i'm really impressed with myself. i've finished my poetry portfolio (and another "thank god i'm done" moment). finally finished up a response paper that was due 2 weeks ago. and i've started applying to grad schools all on the east coast and midwest (i'm hoping for either new york or ohio --> huge differences).
this break has been awesome. so much sleep, so much fun, so little time :-) we kicked ass against the irish today - notre dame never stood a chance. the cold however really got to me and i was pissy the whole game (but i still enjoyed it).
tonight has been awkward to say the least - its one of those "hm" moments b/c my parents are finally putting some closure to what happened early this semester. they passed out some small mementos of my grandma, some pictures, some jewelery, some last words about how she loved us. it was really sweet. and i think i have come full circle with it. thanksgiving was of course tough, but it was enjoyable as well. and that's where i've come to be this entire semester.
this semester hasn't always been fun. it was hard at the beginning but as i said before, the tough times came with some truly amazing times as well. i've really found what i've been looking for in college, and i have life experience. i know how to deal with things and be happy dealing with them. i've got some good people backing me up and an awesome living sitch to boot. i'm glad this is the way my college life turned out b/c its going to end on an amazing high.
