nagi_schwarzTruth hits about as often as it hurts. In fact, it is the hitting that often causes the hurting. The truth hit me today. I'm graduating this December. I have to get things done. I have to study for the LSATs and get my grad applications in order and get letters of recommendation and keep my grades up and have a job lined up for when I move back home. It isn't going to be easy, to say the least. I think I'm up for it. I hope I'm up for it. I got to talk to Panda online the other day. He braved the GRE, and warned me to study hard for the LSAT's. I'm going to do it. It's going to turn me into a demon, I'm sure. I feel like I have so much to get done and so little time in which to get it all done. I really am going to have to set out a schedule for myself. It's a good thing I don't work on Tuesdays and Thursdays, that's for sure. I can get so much done.
But, wow. I really am going to graduate. I feel a bit scared. Somehow I don't think that having a degree is going to make it any easier for me to get a job out there in the real world than when I was just a student still.
On a side note, I really like my professors. I saw Dr. Bostick the other day at lunch, and we talked a little. Apparently he and Dr. Tvordi have become friends over the summer working on the Wooden O conference together, and he mentioned that there were some concerns among the faculty about me going off to law school and abandoning literature. Law, medicine, and theology are, technically, the only true professions, believe it or not. It was fun talking to him, because he's such a mild-mannered man. And then Dr. Cook was so awesome about helping me graduate. And Dr. Fitzpatrick has been so nice about Philosophy club, and with the LSAT's, and even with my measly little mythology assignment. When I saw Professor Franklin today he told me that there are some LSAT books in the library that will help me, and that if I have any questions with the practice test that I could even call him at home for help. Wow. No wonder so many people remember their professors so fondly. So many of my professors are such wonderful people.
Meh. I still have homework and studying to do. I plan on getting some very good grades this semester. If I can do a luau and survive, I can fill out some lame paperwork.
I'll try not to stress about the LSAT's.
