Life As a Grad Student

Yeah, I know I haven't posted for a while. This quarter at school is wrapping up, so things have been insane. Why does it always seem like everything happens at the same time? With only three important things remaining before the end of the term, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just hope isn't not a train. ;-)

On another note, I was wating outside of Dr. Quinn's office (he is my graph theory professor) to talk to him about the homework due tomorrow. Two other students were also waiting outside. I asked them if they were in Graph Theory. (I sit near the front. I don't see many other people.) They reacted with an emphatic "no way." They asked, "Isn't that class really hard?" I said that I have been enjoying the class and thought it to be one of the most fun and straightforward classes I have had taken thus far in grad school. They said, "oh, you're a grad student" and just looked at me like I was crazy. At that moment I realized my transformation is complete. I am truly a grad student now.

Hahaha. You can call it being a "grad student," but I know it really means you love this stuff. It's inspiring and I am glad you have found an environment where you can thrive.

Yeah, there really is a transformation. The difference between my first year in grad school and now is like light and day. Oh, perhaps stress and slack may be a better comparison. :)
