Life Goal 94250: Walk across the stage on May 16th, 2009, receive diploma, shake hands, walk back to my seat, do not fall.– Oh what the hey, who cares if I fall! So long as I get that diploma.
What am I doing until that point? Oh just a little bit of this and a little bit of that. Actually, I’m rather buried in work and it makes me a bit angry. Though Rhodes technically has me for four years of academic torture… I mean work (;-) I promise it’s not that bad!) I really just want them to give me a break and let me enjoy my last few weeks here in peace. But then… I guess I wouldn’t be getting my money’s worth, eh?!
Now that I am near the end and less than three weeks away from the real world you should expect my blogging to be more reflective- less looking forward, but more looking back and living in the moment. It’s funny because we spend our entire 4 years looking towards the end, which is essentially a new beginning and then we get to that end and it is literally an (and excuse my language) “Oh shit!” moment.
But its true. I’m pretty excited to “grow up” and go to med school next year, but there is the realization that this security of only pseudo-independence is about to be gone* forever. Even those of us going into more school are still going to face a whole new world– oh wow… I’m starting to quote Aladdin in my reflections. (I blame it on Stephen for turning Aladdin on last week
.)
I’m excited! Okay…I’m excited and nervous, but I think that there is a healthy level of being nervous. It is motivating– yeah. At least that’s what I believe right now!
Until next time,
Sarah
