The End

I took my last final today.

I'm a little hesitant to believe that this is really the end; that after 8 years of college I am finally done. But the grades I got back before my finals indicate that this would be the case.

• Africa class: 89 on midterm, B- on paper, B on presentation - and the final felt alright. I couldn't do the identification questions, but whatever.
• China class: 85 on midterm, 95 on paper, and all of my in class presentations went really well. I took this final today and it was really exactly what I expected - I felt really well prepared for it. I'm sure it won't be a perfect score but I am super happy with it, I know I did the best I could have possibly done.
• Senior seminar: A on my presentation, A- on my paper, and A on my critique of another student's paper mean I ended up with an A in the class. PSYCHED. This class was awful, all semester - just so much work and so exhausting. But I did it, and ended up by far with the best grade of all my classes this semester.

I was originally in a literature class that I dropped before spring break because of the workload, it was making me fall behind in my other classes and it was just an elective anyway.


This weekend I am going to PA about a job.
A week from tomorrow I fly to Florida with Woody and my parents for a graduation celebration in Key West and Key Largo! This is what I asked for as a graduation present - part of me is sort of wishing I had something tangible that I could hold on to, especially since I am skipping the graduation ceremony, but what I am in need of most of all is FUN. This has been by far the most stressful semester of my college career and I feel like I haven't had a good time since spring break. I'm ready for it!
