So, I turned in my 409 final about two hours ago. I put the papers into a manila envelope and slid them under my professor's door. As the envelope left my hand, I suddenly wondered if that was how we were supposed to turn them in. She said they were due in her office by 6pm. Well, it's in her office. I hated the ad she gave us to analyze. That classed kind of pissed me off. Unlike my 501 class, which I will miss dearly, I'm glad to see 409 go.
So, I just finished lunch and I'm trying to get started on my final position paper. I don't think I've ever been so excited about writing a paper or so worried about getting it right. Which is kind of ironic, considering how much I've come to accept this semester that there really isn't any such thing as "getting it right." I just re-read the introduction to a book that I read last spring right before I applied to the grad program. I decided last week to include it in my paper as a replacement for one of the three enrichment readings. But I hadn't looked at since the first time I read it. After this class, I can't believe how perfect it is for my paper. I'm in love with this book. I just called my friend Paul just to tell him that I started crying while reading the intro and getting excited about my paper. And to tell him that he has to get the editor of the book, Mattilda Bernstein Sycamore to come to our school for the Social Justice Summit.
I have to get started on this paper. I'm so excited.
