or some joker with a flashlight?
I'm so close, I can almost taste it. And yes, surprisingly, graduation tastes like chicken.
I have two papers to turn in -- a 10 pager on Harry Potter (see "of wizards and muggles") and five one-page responses and then... I'm finished. I will no longer be a college student, I will be a college alumna. I will also be officially accepted into graduate school. They've accepted me on the condition that I graduate... which I think is reasonable.
It's exciting and scary all at the same time. I've already started changing my status on things like Facebook and MySpace to "alumna" and adding my chosen graduate school. I've got an apartment and roommate lined up for June, and soon I'll register for classes.
I also need to find a job. As much as I wish I could go to school and be a professional student, I do need to eat and paying for my apartment is also important. I'm not sure what kind of job to look for though. I've got a college degree now, which means I could get better jobs -- but those often require more time than I'm willing to give to something outside of school. I'm crossing my fingers for a campus job.
Well, I'd better get back to work. I can't jump the gun too much, or I won't graduate and then what'll happen to my plans? *shudder* I don't want to think about that.
