All I have to say is that I cannnnnnnot wait until this semester is
over. Anthro final this Thursday, Celtic Studies final next Tuesday,
and Irish final next Friday. THEN I will be home for Christmas! Golly
gee. Seriously though, you guys have NO idea how happy I’ll be to be
home. I’ve enjoyed the past few months, but I am so DONE with these
classes. It’s rediculous. It’s horrible that my least favorite class is
the one that I’m doing for my major. Some things I’ve learned this
semester:

+ I am not cut out to be a Celtic Studies major. Ever. History is much
more my thing, and I’m so excited to do field school in Williamsburg or
Maryland this summer.

+ One of the biggest keys to success at college is a core group of
close friends. Both at school and at home. I don’t know what I would do
without Annie, Zara, Jason, Graham, Adam, and Kristin. And I’ve had
support from Lizzy, Casey, Holly, Ben, Rachel, Connie, and Sproul to
keep me alive, basically. lol. So, thanks you guys.

+ Tried and true. Studying always pays off. Do it more next semester.

+ The BART is not as complicated as I once thought. And the Fremont and
Richmond trains are the same thing, but opposite in direction.

+ Emailing important people is fun and usually results in something
good. AKA, a newfound confidence in oneself, a job, an internship,
volunteer opportunities for a National Conference, Summer Field school,
and hopefully a spot in a filled class.

+ I have learned absolutely NOTHING about boys. lol. They still and
always will remain a complete and utter mystery. They do however, keep
me at a mix of happy frustration.

+ And finally. The biggest and best thing I learned. DC++ saves me a LOT of money. heehee.

So raise your glasses to the end of the term! Oops, mine shattered.
