So this is it, the last week of first semester as a grad student. What can I say about the experience? Not much because my brain feels like porridge. I've been working on the last assignments that are due and let me tell you, thinking has become extremely difficult. It's like I've pulled a muscle in my brain.
I've got two major assignments still in a state far away from done. An essay and the second draft of my play. Thank goodness the thesis proposal is in a place that I can hand it in without too much regret. However, the next week (the last week) is going to be a struggle to get the other two things done. I could use a week of sleeping in watching movies and having fun... no work included!
I am thankful for the month off that is coming up in just over a week. Even though I will be preparing myself for next term by reading, at least it is a month! A full month of puppies, nephews, sisters, parents, friends and cozy home! Emotional rejuvenation is in store for me soon and I need it!
