Week 8: Famous Last Words

Wow, what a bit of a hectic week this has been! With the random snowstorm, class cancellations, and all the other aspects of life, it's been pretty crazy! Being a microbiology senior, I am currently enrolled in my capstone, and we have reached the point in the semester where we must come up with the final project/experimentation that we will write our final papers over in order to graduate - super scary thought, by the way. So, I spent my entire week brainstorming and researching all kinds of topics in hopes that one would jump out at me that I could do my project over. Needless to say, it was a bit of a daunting task, but I think I finally have a lead - thank goodness!

Oh, I totally forgot to mention I went to Soonerthon this weekend at the Huff!

As far as this class goes, I really enjoyed reading everyone's thoughts and reviews this week. It gave me a really good idea about how everyone else feels about the class and gave me some ideas for goals and stories to write the rest of the semester. I am a tad bit behind on the Storybook (terrible case of writer's block), but I finally figured out exactly what I wanted to write about and have gotten my introduction nailed down. My next step is to post the first story, which I will doing within the next couple of hours. I'm excited to finally start writing some of the new posts and getting the website all finished. I can't wait to see how the final product all turns out!

Annnnnnnd, as far as everything else, the snow day was definitely a fun and relaxing day. I definitely needed a bit of a break! With being in class and working 30 hours a week, it was nice to be able to relax a little bit and get caught up on some of my other work - not to mention the snow was beautiful! I'm from south Texas, so I don't get to see the snow a whole bunch (except for the million and one snow days we've had since I've been in college, haha). But it definitely gives a little more value to the days that it does snow!

Oh and one more thing, I got my CAP AND GOWN this week. WHAT in the heck. Where has time gone? How in the WORLD am I old enough to be graduating college? INSANE.
