So Fresh and So Clean Clean

With less than 4 days until graduation I thought I'd post some pics from freshman year.

I think I would have killed myself in that loft, just personally.

2 more days

Yes you read that right, only 2 more class days. What does 2 days of class mean? Let's see...4 classes (normally 5 but one is cancelled) and 5.5 hours of class time. Though that may sound great, and no doubt that it is, I still do have to finish my thesis and actually write my environmental policy paper that's due at 3 on Thursday. You know it's bad when you actually want to work on a thesis instead of a 12 page policy paper. At this juncture I don't think I have enough to write about wetland mitigation banking but I guess what I have will have to suffice at least for now.

On other fronts there have been a bunch of last time at Tech things this week such as my last Hot
Topics Bible study, last pizza night tonight, last Monday, last Tuesday, and on and on. I wish I would have actually done some work earlier in the semester so that it wasn't all piled up now but oh well enough whining. I think I'll be fine about not having Tech classes and some other things but it'll be the small things that I'll miss like the quirks of the student population, the whistle, the NAPC Christmas symphony concert, and the city. I'll definitely miss all of my friends but thanks to the wonders of the internet we'll be able to keep up with each other.

Emily finally made her decision about school and will be going to Wellesley. I'm proud that she is going off to be independent; I think she'll love it.

Ok enough procrastination, time get cracking on the wetlands paper.

I'm going to Carolina in my mind

After a long hiatus I have returned out of trying to find something to do instead of writing my thesis. Well as you can tell from this post's title, I'm going to UNC for grad school. It took me awhile to finally make the decision but I think it's going to be a good change. The monetary offer was a little better than Tech's as well. I'm not too keen on being around the same folks all the time for the next 2 years, especially since most are closer to 30 than I am to 20, but it will work out (hopefully).

On other fronts, I am lacking motivation which is a very bad thing when one is trying to graduate. My school work to do list consists of the following:
  • Thesis

  • Thesis presentation

  • Environmental Policy Paper about wetland mitigation banking

  • Legal Aspects of Business quiz

  • 3 finals including one at 8 am on Friday of finals week

  • GRADUATION!!!
