And we’re done!
Well, almost. I submitted all of my work and have confirmation from each of my professors that I have indeed passed. There is no failing out of grad school for me! Now, I just need to muster up the courage to give a speech in front of several hundred people. Of course graduation falls on the 50th reunion weekend for my program, so I’ll have a great deal of alumni in the audience as well. No pressure…
Soon this will be happening again. Eep!
I’ve spent the last few days cleaning up my apartment and office in preparation for my eventual move. It is amazing how therapeutic it is to go through all of my items. Somehow I’ve given away a disturbingly large amount to Goodwill, I had no idea I’d amassed so much crap. Here’s hoping I can live with less once I return to the real world (whenever that happens).
In running related news, this morning I’m heading off to Alameda to rock the See Jane Run half marathon with my lovely running partner Maggie. Thank goodness she dragged me out for an 11 miler a few weeks ago or I’d never be prepared! At the Rock and Roll San Jose I helped* her PR, so I’m secretly hoping we can do that again. Again, no pressure whatsoever…
What races are you rockin’ this weekend?
*The term “help” is used lightly. I’m pretty sure it was all her and she was trying to finish quickly to get away from my peppy, obnoxious race self.

Congratulations!!!!
Even though it’s a lot of work, I *love* cleaning a place out before a move. It feels soooo good to get rid of stuff I don’t need. I can never believe how much junk I’ve amassed!
Thanks Angela!!
I’m ready to start living with less (I think), so it is time I purge my life of all these “things”. We’ll see how that goes when I finally find a new apartment…
Congrats! And yes, purge now! Now that we own a house, it feels impossible.
