Graduation!

Graduation is tonight. In 18 hours or so, I will be sitting in an auditorium, in my purple academic gown and black cap, waiting for the Dean to confer me my empty diploma case. Degrees aren't given until January (or March, so I've heard) and so, this graduation ceremony, is well, primarily ceremonial. But, I still have butterflies in my stomach. and i can't concentrate on my work, which I still have to do even though graduation is today. That means, there is a likely chance that I do not get my degree in January, in the event I fail one of my classes. Which I'm pretty sure will not happen. but, hahaha, we'll see.

I know I will not feel any different after the ceremony tomorrow, since I will most likely return to the library to work on a paper due Thursday. I'll still be nervous, like I am right now. I'm trying to down play it in my mind, just so I don't psyche out. But the ceremony is the first indicator that my college years are officially coming to a close. Its so bittersweet. I will miss these years, these fun years. SIIIIIIIIIGH.

Pandora

I've started using Pandora to stream music online. I created only one playlist: a Studying playlist with music ranging from John Mayer to T.I. Today I discovered a playlist that I did not create titled "Symphonic" Radio. All classical music.

A few cello songs came up in the cue. Just listened to one of the Bach suites. I realized its been a year since I picked up a cello. I really do miss playing it. I miss my old cello, the one that broke sophomore year. The way I feel about the cello is kind of like the way it sounds, a swelling bittersweet sound. If that makes any sense. haha.

Midst of studying for my last midterm of my undergrad career. Then 2 essays and 3 exams until I am completely free from undergrad. Craaaaaaaaazy. My head is spinning, time is going way too fast. Thanksgiving is over, and Christmas and New Years is right around the corner. I never really liked this time of the year, even though I do regard the Holidays as a very romantic time of the year. But I could never enjoy it fully because of school. I am going to make a point to set some time to the side, outside of my exams, to check out the holiday scene. Because I do have someone special I can experience it with. It would make this holiday season more special and meaningful than the past years.

Ok, back to studying. got to kick ass!
