Today was my last day of Geography and i skipped it because...well it's geography.
So, today also my last day of skipping class. And it felt great.
Today was my last day of Religion. I turned in a ten page term project on Japanese Literature. Because i started the 25% of my grade term project yesterday, i knew i had to pull out all the works to pull up my C average. Let's just say i included PICTURES!!!!! And who doesn't like some embedded pictures and haiku's. Exactly.
Today was my last day of Shakespeare. He returned papers, i drew a butterfly on my arm, and stared for the last time at my very geeky (but nice) Shakespeare teacher try to get some sort of reaction out of us other then "We are bored, can we leave now". I got my last B- on a english paper and my last quiz grade.
Today was my last full day at work. Everyone quit on friday and so there are only a few of us hanging on. in a couple of days i will also have my last day of working in the library, my last conversation with Kathleen, Amanda, and Debbie Downer (thank good). I'll have to celebrate.
And of course, Today was my last day of therapy. Damn. I was nervous just walking in. I felt like bailing, calling the health center and telling them that i couldn't make my scheduled appointment. But, i couldn't do that after all the big changes that have happened in my life.
So i walked there, clutching Rain line (the book i decided to give him) and dreading having to say goodbye. I hate goodbyes. I hate "the end" especially cause it meant so much that he helped me out. I mean i'm still that same person as i was last year or that year before that, but i'm allowing other people to see it, and i don't think i could have gotten to this state without everyone helping me there.
I balled of course like a baby. I was vulnerable and tearful as i said my goodbye, mixed with a few thank you's in between. When i gave him the book, he said i could take anything from his office in return. Interestingly enough i locked eyes with some stone angel whose wings are made out of iron. I'm not religious or anything but the angel was so pretty that i knew it was the thing that i wanted ( i also took an anxiety rock).
What an exhausting Last Day. How is it already the end of the semester. How is it already the end of college life. I feel like i just got here.
i feel so unprepared for the real world. So unprepared and sort of ready.
