Whew. Things are flying by nowadays!! So much is going on that I barely have the time to breathe.
I give my honors presentation tomorrow at 3pm. It's a 25 minute presentation with a 5 minute question/answer period following. I think I'm ready. Preparing this presentation was absolutely terrible-- trying to cut a 30 page paper to 12 pages is perhaps the hardest academic excercise of my life. But I'm happy with what I have and I think it will be good. I'm nervous, though, because the entire philosophy department is going to present.
In other news, I got called into the VP for University Advancement's office the other day... Another one of the "big shots" on campus. Apparently my situation was announced to the President's Cabinent on Monday morning... so things are pretty public now. But the VP wants to help me with some fundraising as well, making contacts, what have you. So I'm writing something up for him too. God only knows!!
Graduation approaches very quickly. I'm somewhat in denial. Or, as I prefer to see it, I'm too busy to be bothered by it.
My moral paper is due tomorrow... I need to retype that up since I only have the hard copy from my rough draft. I probably won't make any edits to it. Which should be fine, he already said I had an A on it.
I have another 12 page paper due on Friday, but I got an extension for next Wednesday. Gotta finish my honors paper and write another big paper for my econ class. Then I'm pretty much in the clear.
One more week of classes. Then finals.
Oy vey.
