I am finally at the last official day, for me, of the spring semester. Once I go to class this evening and turn in my paper and project I will be free of school related things until Prague later this month. Big sigh of relief!
This semester has had highs and lows, some weeks it seemed like the lows were going to win out. After having spent a semester in the art department I have to say that I am extremely happy to have made the change. I finally feel like I fit somewhere in the Fine Arts Doctoral program - yay! I still hang out with my theatre friends and we still have classes together. I did have a short play produced in RROAPS this year and dramaturged the best production of the season, Rabbit Hole, so I haven't totally gone to the "dark side," at least not yet - LOL.
I get to go to Prague for a class in Summer I and I am beyond excited. I have never been out of the country before, so this is a big deal for me. I'm leaving Chicago on May 26 and on May 27 I will be in Prague until June 27 - woo hoo! Europe here I come so someone had better watch out - ha!
I don't have to come back to Lubbock until July 6 to start Summer II classes on July 7 and I just found out I have a job for the second summer session - go me. I got a scholarship for next year and probably an assistantship as well, so that's good news. Now, if only the financial aid office would get it together so I know for sure I'll be able to go to school this summer and next year I would be happier. That will be one of my errands tomorrow - trek to West Hall and up to the third floor to hopefully talk to someone who can actually answer my questions. That in itself is always an adventure.
I am going to try and keep up with my blog more often while I am in Prague. I will definitely be taking lots of photos and uploading them daily I imagine. For those of you who have actually been paying attention to this blog, thank you. I plan on giving you updates on a more regular basis. Who knows - I may decide to quit school and stay in Europe. Stranger things have happened!
