Today in my counseling session we discussed my inability to write my 8 paragraphs on mothers and the social support provided by their adult children. As it turns out, I am not not only slightly afraid...of everything I will need to tackle the paragraphs. I have 4 articles to read yet, and I need more information on history of support...but then I should be good to go. We'll see what tomorrow brings
Ok here's one for you... This afternoon Departmental Crush came into my office close to tears. I have not said more than "hello" to her in over two weeks. In fact, I thought she was ignoring me...and...really unhappy here. I feel sorry for her, but this White Knight's retired. I do not have the strength to carry another through life; especially someone to whom I am physically attracted. Well shit
I e-mailed four of my professors from college asking them nicely if they'd write recommendations for me. On 3/4 of the e-mails, I spelled recommendation as "recomendation" in the subject line, so I feel...schools there, either, except it's frickin' Notre Dame , dammit. Anyway... Yeah. I still have a lot to do, but it doesn't feel as daunting, really, anymore. Let's hope I can keep up the momentum
Boo At the Zoo: We had a great time. I (Big bad Wolf) went all three nights this past weekend with Tanner (The Woodsman). Girly Ryan came the second night and Kelli the Third (as Little Red). The kids...pretty good. Meaningful Phrase: "I mean, I scored really well on the english section, but even with as hard as I studied, there were words I'd never heard. I mean, what the hell is 'vicissitude'?" -M
It is currently 6:40 AM and I am walking to school. I have more than a full day today, which will be capped off with a review session I am running tonight from 9-11. That's right, I'm spending 16 hours...distance I have to walk by going this way, and my bookbag is filled to the point of bursting, which, in turn is causing my back to ache and spasm. This will all be worth it when I become a doctor
This afternoon we received an e-mail from our department chair, "inviting" us all to a discussion with him tomorrow shortly before noon. As a long-time member of this department, I have NEVER seen a meeting... Tomorrow is going to be an interesting day. I cannot wait to see what our department chair has to say; nor can I wait to see the reactions of the first yeargraduate students. *shakes head
The hammer has been dropped...eight paragraphs on MOTHERS and social support are to be finished this week. Why mothers? As it turns out, my major professor and I are in agreement that mothers and the social...ready to finish my work and write like there is no tomorrow. But first, I need to travel to my favorite coffee shop for fuel and inspiration. I hope the woman with the electric blue eyes is there..
I have been forced to leave campus early by my nees to do some type of work. You see, there are simply too many people on campus today who need something from me. I had to take a stand and remove myself from the hectic situation. Now I am headed home, dreaming of spiced tea, my pajama pants and a pair of comfy slippers.
Just got back a little while ago from walking around, I thought I'd do something other than sit around here. So I ended up going to Love Park, then the art museum area...the fountain and water in Love...now I've seen people playing music around Rittenhouse Square, this time a guy was playing bagpipes, pretty cool. He looked like he was around my age too. So many people around too, so much to do..
I believe last time I was still speaking about how I just changed my major and I was excited because I had finally figured something out. It made me feel good and some pressure was lifted off my shoulders... because I'm a transfer student so I can knock out my University Core and my AOKs by the first semester of my junior year and then I will be only taking Economics courses which is pretty exciting to me
