The Ultimate Final Countdown Begins...198 days and counting...
Current mood: calm

So just shy of my 200 day mark, I officially have 198 days left before I graduate with my degree on Saturday, May 3rd 2008 with my Bachelor of Arts in English Literature and two minors in Creative Writing and Musical Theatre. And I just can't wait for it. It's getting harder and harder to focus on what I've got to do for it. And yet at the same time, it gives me the boost to get up and do what I need. I just won't know what to do with myself after I get this degree. I've been in school so long, I don't know what else to do with myself. But I've dedicated myself to what I think I want to do afterwards, and I think it will be a fabulous opportunity for someone like me, and give me the chance to get out there and live life at the same time. I want to teach English internationally in other countries. And there's a lot of opportunities to get there, I just have to find the right avenues to do it. I'm not exactly sure what mom and dad think of the situation since I told them that I don't want to go to NASA and that government jobs are just not my flow. But I'm sure once they see that things will work out, they'll come around.

I'm doing better in my classes than I originally expected, though at this time in my graduation career, the GPA is becoming less of an issue as opposed to me just getting through the class with acceptable grades. I just want to be able to get through and get above a 3.0 and be good. That's all I want from all of this. So I can say I finished above average. So things on that front are pretty good.

I've found some amazing music tonight that I have completely fell in love with and ended up spending close to another 10.00 on Itunes tonight, between the new Underworld cd named "Oblivion With Bells," and believe it or not, Telepopmusik's "Angel Milk." I had no idea they had a new cd, and it is absolutely goregous. The song I have totally fallen for much like I did for their first cd, is now on my profile, "Don't Look Back." It's so beautiful. Much like my life after all this strife, when everything is finally over. I will be so ready. So ready. I can't wait to just cry it all out and move on.
