Natural Sceptre

John flipped the mattress today. Just in case anyone was wondering. Apparently that’s something that grownups do. Good to know.

Today was the film final- yesterday was Book of Mormon. I didn’t do AMAZINGLY on either, but I did well enough. Well enough to keep my grades high, and well enough to be done with a couple more classes. There’s only one more building on campus that I ever have to go to again- that’s kind of exiting!

I parked my car across from my old house today. I wasn’t planning on it- but when I went to campus I found out that everyone else in the Provo area had a final at the same time, so I drove around a bit looking for a spot. I checked out the lot across from the white house, and lo and behold, a spot! It was kind of weird, taking my old route onto campus again. Walking back to my car the same way I used to. The house looks small now, more decrepit then it used to. And I was amazed to feel…nothing. It’s kind of sad. Coming to the end of my undergraduate career I thought I’d feel something. Perhaps, nostalgia or excitement, or sadness at leaving. But I feel kind of nothing. I know I had all of those feelings when I left Scranton- so maybe I used all of them up.

So yes- still some work to do.  I especially have to get my house spic and span for the weekend.  I think it’ll feel nice to actually pay some attention to my surroundings.  Haven’t done that in a little bit.

I almost forgot my MOST exciting news.  I got into Westminster’s MPC program!  I found out yesterday.   Now I have to decide when to start.  Basically, if I can get financial aid for one class- I’ll start in January.  If not, I’ll have to wait until May.  Either way, I’m happy to have a new next step.  I think I’ll learn some really useful skills there. This Master’s program will be a perfect, compatible capstone to my philosophy degree.

Time to get some things done.
