holy crap! so... all my grades are in... this was by far my busiest and academically hardest quarter yet, but turns out my grades were A/A+/A+/A+!!! best i've ever done... at this point if i even get an A- i consider myself as having failed.
basically, the past 4 and a half months or so have been the single most happy, confident, stable, and capable period of my entire life. i really don't know how or why that happened, but i sure hope it lasts. i keep thinking that i'm going to crash again sooner or later, but it hasn't happened yet. even when some pretty shitty things happened, they haven't really bothered me all that much. i think the trick is just keeping myself busy...
in other news i still can't decide what i want to do after graduation... grad school in poli sci? geography? law school? masters in urban planning? i might just apply to a few of each and see what happens. i also know for absolute certain that i should take time off before grad school. however i also know that i'm going to apply to some in the fall anyway... and if i get in and get some good funding offers, i may just be tempted to not take any time off in between. i guess ideally i would get in somewhere that would let me defer for a year.
i guess i think i'm leaning towards a poli sci phd, possibly doing a combined program with law school at the same time (if i get into both at the same place). berkeley, columbia or, dare i say harvard, would be cool...
but hell with all that, it's summertime. if you're around, call me up. i need to keep busy! i'm taking one class first session then hopefully going to the east coast in august.
