First, congratulations to everyone who presented this week! Everyone did amazing, even if we had the luxury of going a little over time. I know everyone who still has to go is going to do incredibly well on Wednesday!
Right now I’m entirely focused on editing. I’ve been a little anxious recently, realizing I’m going to be turning in this paper in four days and just “letting it be.” There are definitely still some edits and grammatical corrections yet to make and I’ve been working on them since giving my presentation. They will be finished by the due date, but realizing that at this point all I can really do is fine tune what I have already written and not put any new information in is somewhat scary. My argument is written, it’s all about making it clear and concise at this point.
That said, it’s kind of strange where we’re at in the semester. Everything is pretty much done, the presentation, the drafts, the blogs. All that’s left is to turn in a final draft for Dr. Lowe. It seems almost like a letdown. All semester this massive project has been looming over my head and I’ve been stressing to get it done, and now that it’s just about over I don’t feel like it was all that much work. I know it was, and the reason I got it finished is because Dr. Lowe forced us to space our work out and I got great feedback from both her and all of you. I’m proud of all of us for what we accomplished, what we learned, and how we worked this semester. I don’t know how many of us are graduating, but I wish all of us who are good luck to their future careers. Anyone who is not graduating, enjoy the rest of college and keep up the good work. If you keep working like you did this semester there’s nothing you can’t do.
If this isn’t the last blog post and I miscalculated I’ll get sappy again next week too.
Also, I’ve been keeping track of all the movies I’ve watched since November of last year. If you can’t tell from my presentation or my project in general, I really like movies. If you’re looking for something to watch feel free to take a gander at the list. Standout movies for me are The Nice Guys, The Invisible Man, Nocturnal Animals, Evil Dead II, Hereditary, and Midsommar.
