There haven’t been many times in my college career that I’ve actually felt like a college student. I know, I know. That sounds really weird, especially because I’m very nearly finished, but the truth remains that there are times that I have to actually stop and tell myself that I am in college. I suppose I thought it would “feel” different, but I’m here, and I’m almost through, so I must have been wrong. However, every time I am forced to write a paper, I immediately feel like a college student. And that is exactly how I am feeling right now. That’s right: I am taking a break from writing a paper to write a blog.
I suppose I should be feeling super collegiate considering the magnitude of the paper. I’m finishing up my senior thesis, and theoretically, graduating is contingent upon the completion (and subsequent passing) of this paper. I’m not too worried, though. Even though I thought I was going to have to BS my way through this, it’s actually turning out pretty well and has proven to be much less daunting than I originally thought. That’s a good thing, right? I can talk about my major in relation to other things for at least eight pages. That’s good.
So how’s that for glamorous? I’m staying up late and spending some quality time with my senior thesis and listening to old episodes of This American Life. Y’all are jealous, I can tell.
