As of the time of writing this graduation is 52.5 hours away from beginning! Oh my goodness!
Classes are all over so now I actually feel like I can sit down and give you a sense of how I'm feeling. But before I do that I'm going to share with you a few thoughts from the last few weeks!
"
A version of "The Judge" for graduation.....It's creeping closer day by day! Life is scary! It's tales are hairy! It's jobs have claws!" If you haven't read The Judge you really should! It's a children's book but very funny! The book is all about a Judge who sits in judgement of about four different characters as they come to tell him about this monster that is "creeping closer day by day."
The second thought from the last few weeks is about my final undergraduate research paper ever....it's pretty self-explanitory! "Last undergraduate research
paper finished. Unlike my dreams it was not a dignified, calm walk across the
finish line......No, it was a mad, undignified scramble, with a run across
campus between classes for good measure, crossing of the finish line!"
But now I'm completely done.....I have this empty feeling, but it's a whole empty feeling. A feeling that I will miss this part of my life, but this part is over. I have to go out and get on with my life! For those of you that are going to ask, life includes getting a job to pay off my student loans and look for graduate schools! Not sure exactly what I want to do in graduate school yet, but I'll figure it out soon enough!
I hope to have some graduation photos up here very soon! Have a great week and some great adventures!
I like the way you put that Elizabeth--a whole empty feeling. I'm glad to have gotten to know you some over these past few years. God bless you in your job search and all the rest! :)
