The Final Stretch

It's getting to the point in the semester where everything kinda goes crazy. We are finally at the final stretch. Less than three weeks of classes left and less than four until everything is done. All of my classes are starting to catch up with me. I have projects, presentations, and papers out the wa-zoo to finish up in the next few weeks. I have felt really good about how this semester has gone so far but I'm starting to stress about the coming weeks. I'm glad to know though that I'm not the only one feeling this way. I know a lot of my friends are starting to feel all of the classes start to bog them down and freak them out a little too. Also, I know some professors have summer plans and have to move and lots of other things that they are going to have to finish up while grading all of our projects, presentations, and papers.

This week is ROOM DRAW week! That means, that all upperclassmen, next year's seniors, juniors, and sophomores will be choosing where they live next school year. There's quite a bit of processes that must occur before though. Each person must pay their $100 room deposit. Once you pay this, next year when you come back to school, they will take this $100 out of your bill. After you pay it, you must return a room draw card that says that you will be staying for next year and gives the student life office some minor demographic information. Lastly, every student must register for classes for the fall. After all of this is complete, the student life office will post some random numbers. Those numbers let you know when you will be able to pick a room. Each person gets a number so both of the roommates get to use one number, whichever is the lesser number of the two. My roommate is number 16 and I am number 44. Needless to say, we're going with her number. Hopefully we can find a room that we want to live in for next year. Wish us luck.

P.S. Friday was my big Psychology Research Conference presentation. I did it and I was told I did really well. Phew! I am so glad that it's over though. Now I can use that presentation for future grad school applications.
