What a Ride this Semester has Been


I wrote my first extra credit paper for History on Tuesday. On Wednesday I pre-recorded Friday’s show. I also stayed up late and finished transcribing my interview at the homeless shelter. Thursday was hectic. I went to my ethics class at 9:30. Then I went to US politics at 11:30. After that class, I wrote my second extra credit paper for history at the radio station and plugged Friday’s show on of my friend’s DJ shift. Computer Assisted Reporting took place at 2:30 and was immediately followed by our last radio class of the semester. Everyone who was graduating or leaving for the summer said their goodbyes. After radio class I went to quiz bowl practice where I worked on my take home final for History. After practice 3 of us from the team went to eat at Goodcents and ran into their closing time. I stayed up until 3 AM writing my history final. Then I went to bed. I woke up the next day and wrote a (low-quality) 2-page paper that my ethics professor let me turn in late. I also finally received the response to my FOIA request. Then I went to history and we covered everything that occurred in Iranian History from the mid-1980s until now. I then went to the radio station, filled in for someone else’s DJ shift who didn’t show up, and gave away tickets. Then I went home, ate, and went to bed around 5 PM.

It was an incredible relief to have almost all of my stuff done for the semester. Even though I finished so many assignments at the last second, it wasn’t because I blew it off. I had assignments due constantly and have been stressed and busy since the week before Spring Break until now.

On Saturday I woke up at 5 AM and did the dishes, made breakfast, which dirtied the dishes, and cleaned my car for the first time in months. Today I am working on writing a second rough draft for Baltrip to review tomorrow.
