8 days!!

Hello all!

So I know I already sort of did my "closure" post, but I just wanted to post back after all of you guys's posts. First of all, as you can see from my title David, I am counting down. 8 days until my last class and 16 until graduation day! I'm so excited! My little sister is coming to stay with my on the 12th-ish and then she's going to stay until the rest of my family gets here for my graduation! I'm so freaking excited!!! but, back to reality. I'm posting this as a breather from my final paper for cultivating the spirit. I can't believe it's due tomorrow! May 1st seemed like it was so far away! Anyway, 1261 words down. Only 739 left. ugh. I can't complain too much though. I just finished my field report for education 301 on sunday and it was 22 pages long. I can't believe I got through that whole thing. I also have a big research presentation tomorrow. After that it's just one 4-6 page reflection and a final reflection for my education class that I've already started. I can't believe I'm so close! It feels like forever!
With my grad school program it's very controlled with what classes you take. There really isn't any choice. I take 1-4 classes a semester and they're always at 4:30 or 7:10. I don't get to pick my section or anything. They literally have a reserved section of the classes for my cohort and tell us all to sign up for them. Fortunately, I'm starting pretty easy. Just 3 credits this summer and we meet TR from 4:30-7:10. Hopefully it won't be too bad.
Lindsey--I hope you're doing ok with Josh being gone. I'm keeping you in my thoughts! I hope that you're able to take Gracie home soon! Have you started your new job yet? If so is it going well?! Hopefully keeping busy with work and your practices can help you not miss Josh ALL the time! ;]
David--You're yard looks AWESOME! I know you probably told us already, but do you live with parents? What family are you going to see in Hungary?
Ariel--I hope your pop culture paper turned out alright and your new jobs going well. I would suggest checking hiremason for jobs if you haven't already. My job was approving the jobs that went on there for two years and they get a TON in just about every field. The best part is that a lot of the companies are mainly looking to hire from Mason. It's definitely worth checking out and if you aren't registered it's free and you have a lifetime membership. If you wait until 6 months after graduation or more you have to pay like $10 or $20 to register. So do it even if you don't need it now! I was looking at jobs on there the other day and I'm pretty sure I saw a couple social work positions!

Guys! We seriously need to have a closure meeting. I know we'll close things out at our last meeting, but I really want to see you all and hang out before we all go our separate ways in the "real" world!

Miss you guys!
