Pass both Senior Seminars with Honors
o.O Halfway Point! 1 week ago

I can’t believe it is already halfway through the semester. The papers are going ever so slowly and the time is flying by. My English Seminar paper is written the most out of both papers yet the paper I feel least confident about. I also got tunnel vision and completely forgot about my Honors Research Paper and now have a proposal due by the end of the week and I haven’t thought about it since May. I’ll just have to keep fighting through these papers and keep my eye on the prize. As one of my classmates said during Senior Seminar, I want another set of cords so I can hang myself with them before graduation.

15. Playing computer games with my fiance.



Register for the GREs
Hmm... 1 month ago

Two of the grad schools I am applying to, one being my top choice, do not require the submitting of a GRE score. I may just not have to take it! I have to keep looking at other grad schools, though. I think I should apply to more than just two!
