Sort of a related note, I can't believe I start classes next Monday! Its been a really nice winter break; I've been able to read for pleasure, do some sewing, have both days to frolic on the weekends, and see some friends. Its been a taste of what life will be like again when I'm done with graduate school. Here's hoping that I can continue to do it (to a lesser degree, of course) in the spring semester.
This will be my last tough semester i.e. the last one that I'll be taking two classes in. One of these classes is my thesis - so this could either be the easiest semester yet (since I love research and paper writing - its just my "thing"). It could also though be the toughest semester yet in that it will take the most creativity. The summer will bring just my internship (which my job counts for actually, I just have to write a paper about something I'm doing at work) and next fall will only bring one class. Then I'll be done (whoot). Less than a year from now I'll have my Master's degree. As the wonderful Alice Cooper would say, "School [will be] out forever"!
I know I've said this all here before. I have to keep reminding myself because it keeps me going in the times that I'm really frustrated and just want to go directly home from work but can't, or want to have fun on Saturday *and* Sunday (but can't, since one day is reserved for homework).
