Ok, so I know it's been a LONG time but this last semester REALLY took it out of me. Between all my classes, T.A'ing for two, being the R.A. for two, conferences, publishing articles, getting a book deal for my M.A. thesis and applying to 8 PhD programs, I had a FULL PLATE!!
I cannot seem to leave my slumber of the Midwest/East Coast Vacation I find myself on until Jan 17th, when I am on a plane back to California and the real stress begins. Although I am excited this break has really helped me relax, read and realize that I needed time to just decompress.
