Finally Finished!

Woo hoo! This is so exciting, I am finally finished with my big Shakespeare paper! As part of my month in England studying Shakespeare I had to write a rather hefty paper on a topic of my choosing. Well, I've been working on this paper since July and it is finally finished :) Geeze, I'm going to hardly know what to do with myself now that it's done. I mean, I've spent every single day for the last month working on this paper, whether it was doing research or actually writing it, there has hardly been a day that's gone by that I wasn't doing something for this paper. Best part is, I actually got to write about a topic of my choosing which made it a hell of a lot more interesting to write and work on. I mean, I've had to write plenty of other papers of the same length and I'd get to maybe page 15 and have nothing more to say but I needed to make at least 20 pages so I'd bullshit the rest of the paper. Yeah, that's a really good way to go about writing, eh? With this paper it was full steam ahead and I was at 20 pages and still had things I wanted to discuss which is the way it should be. I hope my prof likes it, but, you know what, I feel really bloody proud of myself either way. I'm glad it's done and there were days I didn't want to go work on it after a long day at work, but I actually enjoyed it in a weird way. Maybe if I had had more profs like this one in my doctoral program I'd have stayed there. Now I get to go to the grad library and return a HUGE pile of books (sick part is, I read almost all of them) which will be kind of fun. I almost feel like I should "dedicate" my paper to the staff at my local Starbucks since I wrote almost all of the paper while sitting there :)

So, that's the excitement for now. One job possibility but I'm not going to talk about it b/c I feel like I'll jinx it.

Yay for being done with the paper!
Ciao,
Sasha
