I am back in KC. I am living with my family, in a room the is supposed to be an office above the living room. Needless to say, it is not the ideal living situation and definately not one I was aiming for, but there is nothing I can do about it at this point. I am trying to make the best of it. I am also in the process of getting a job. At this point, it looks like I am going to be hired as an assistant manager at DressBarn. It is not quite what I am looking for, but if it pays the bills until I get a real job, then I am willing to do it.

I graduate tomorrow. My appartment is almost completely packed. This is the HARDEST thing I think I have ever done.

Good byes suck. I haven't said very many yet, the majority will begin tomorrow. It is hard to believe that all I have worked for, first to get to college and then the past four years, is here. It is even harder to fully embrace the fact that in two days, my life as I know it will be over. I won't be a student, I can't remember a time when I wasn't in school. Marquette is my home and I will be driving away unsure when I will return. Those are hard enough to accept without having to face leaving my friends. To think there are people that I have seen almost every day for the past four years that I will never see or talk to again. It is really wierd.
Bring on the tears and red, puffy eyes.

IT is the last week of classes. It is almost a surreal feeling to know that in two weeks, my life as I know it in Maquette will be over. I still have a couple tests and I do need to write quite a bit, but for the most part, its over. all of it. I can't decide if I am elated or devestated.
On a side note, I found out that the email address that I have been using to send out my resume is partially shotty and doesn't always send the messages. This may explain why I haven't been hearing back from people. I will never know. But I have changed tactics and hopefully they will result in a job. Somewhere. Doing something.
In the mean time, I will be rying to balance enjoying my last weeks as a student with writing a million pages, finishing my photoalbums from Germany and packing.

It appears as though my undergraduate academic career is going to end with a bang! While I have nt yet finished, or for that matter started, one of my directed studies, the other one will be turned in by Wednesday. My other classes are going at least relatively well and I passed outcomes assessment with flying colors. In addition, I am an outstanding graduating senir for the speech communications major, the keynote speaker for the Leadership Recognition Banquet, and I think another award. It appears that all of my hard work is finally starting to be recognized officially and it is a good feeling.
I still have no idea what I am doing after graduation. I am sending out my resume every few days to a few places that have posted jobs online, so hopefully one of them will take me somewhere.
In the mean time, I am not freaking out about school anymore, though I should probably be trying a bit harder than I am (now that I am oficially relaeased from my major by passing outcomes, nothing else seems wuite as important), I am enjoying being a college student, i.e. bars, parties, friends, etc. While its not perfect, life is pretty good.

So I came to a very disturbing conclusion today. 31 Days. 1 month from tomorrow. What is it? Graduation. and I picked up my cap and gown.... AHHH!!! Minor anxiety attack. I know things will work out in the end, but I have absoltely no clue what I will be doing 33 days from tomorrow. It is not a good feeling. But the ffelers are out and there will be a job along someday.
On a more positive note, the snow we got yesterday is completely gone and the rest of the week it is supposed to be nice. I finished my smell paper, so all i have to do is edit it and turn it in... so that I can rewrite it again before school is over. I think it turned out pretty good and I have learned a lot from it, so that makes it all ok.
anyway... now I am taking the night off from studying and paper writing to go watch the Big Lebowski and drink White Russians. Good times all around.

I love Northern and Marquette. I love my friends. But I need to get away. I need a change. It is time for new faces and places and things to worry about.
Another week of classes and more paper writing. I have a meeting to go over my directed study this week. THAT is going to be fun. I need to start my other directed study. And my speech for Outcomes. And I want to work on some other stuff. Time to buckle down again this week.
I am getting sick. Stupid sore throat.
