finals!!!

well, it's finals week. and you know what that means. holy moley freak out. and try to get everything done that you should have started way earlier. 


i'm in a pretty okay place. i think. two exams and two papers to go. i'm not sure if i should feel as calm as i do now. maybe it's just because it's nearly three am and i'm on the ninth floor of the library listening to the rain hit the  window. it is rather soothing. 


i have not been in any education courses this semester so i will use that as the excuse for why i have not posted since this summer. as always, when one semester is coming to a close i eagerly look to the next in anticipation for topics that have yet to be explored and the fresh slate that awaits. but alas, much stands between me and spring semester. 


i must first decide if i want to stay at the library and try to write more of my paper or call it quits for now and head home. (i think the fact that i'm blogging out of no where is evidence that i should choose my bed.) 


i have much to say. and much to share. if with no one else, then just with myself, on a more articulate level than usual. so i am hoping to use this medium more.


an aside: i am glad that i am now aware of its existence, but at the same time i am frustrated that no one in my life thought it was worth mentioning to me. [post secret]


good night. and good luck. 

locked in the library.

I'm mid-finals week and I am definitely missing my study buddies from Calvin. Hannah will forever be the best paper writing partner ever. [I love late night ihop runs and plugging in my computer into the outlet on the ceiling.] Dan was also a good partner in crime. Josh was the best in Spain - splitting a bottle (or two) of wine over homework is definitely the way to go. 


I've been spending a good amount of time in the library due to the sad state that my computer is in. I really, really, really want to get a new one. [a macbook pro] But that doesn't seem to be in the cards at the moment. I just don't like always using public computers or the family computer. I feel restricted in a way and I don't completely understand why. I guess I am very fortunate and have gotten used to the convenience of having a personal laptop. 


So I have two exams down. One to go. And a Spanish paper that is killing me. 


I have been doing fairly well here at Kent State but I still struggle so much with writing a paper. Perhaps I should look into the resources here for paper writing. As of right now I just need to buckled down and pump it out. [First things first, I need to stop all my dilly-dallying.] 


Summer is a day away (as well as Cinco de Mayo) and I'm ready for it. [As well as the summer courses that I'll be taking.] 


PS> Calvin friends - the library here is open 24hours M-F. (and it's open on Sunday.)
