The finals week from hell is finally over. After a 15 page exam, a 3 hour final, 2 scenes, an ensemble performance, 2 papers, an in class essay, a 200 page prompt book (I never want to look at that play again) APO initiation (congrats to our new members!) a meeting with the college’s president, staying up almost all night packing/cleaning, quick goodbyes to everyone and a 3 hour plane ride, I am back in Pennsylvania for the next month.
My break so far has consisted mainly of hot water bottles, painting, drinking tea, watching the snow out of my window, listening to Elliot Smith, and sleeping throughout the day. It is lovely. I have very few plans to move from my bed until January. At some point I will have to start applying for internships and writing my AERA conference paper and being a productive adult member of society, Jess and I have plans to go in to DC sometime next week to have a museum day and see the national tree, but for right now I am perfectly happy to sit here under my duvet and watch Richard III. (Ian Mckellen and Annette Bening performing Shakespeare? Yes please)
