It's officially summertime for me because as of 12:59pm this afternoon I turned in my last assignment! It was actually really sweet, because it happened to be a project worth half of my overall grade and it was very ambiguous. The assignment was to demonstrate your understanding of training and development by teaching yourself to do something over the course of the semester. My natural inclination was to freak out (I love guidelines and a rubric to make sure I'm tracking), but I really enjoyed the assignment and getting to express my creativity. Plus it was way better than the 15 page paper I had to write or pretty much any other assignment ever. I learned Photoshop (something I've always wanted to learn) and made a slide show of my different creations. My professor emailed me back to say he received it, and then again 5 minutes later to say that he loved my project!! My love language is words of affirmation, so that totally made my day. I also just looked at my grade (he already graded it, wow!) and I got an A. Honestly, I was more excited about his feedback than my grade. Is that a sign of maturity?
It's really weird to think that I'm going to be graduating and out in the real world this time next year. I move out of my apartment that I've lived in for 4 years on Saturday, so I've been packing up my belongings. Pretty sad. This week I'm working 40 hours, which is interesting only because it's still the slow part of the year. So I feel awful, but honestly I haven't done too much today. Especially for a Monday, which is usually my busiest day. I should find a project or something for the rest of the week.
That's all for now. I'm really looking forward to dogsitting, Hawaii, and moving in to my new place! But also trying not to wish my lazy days away, because I'm pretty sure it's only going to get crazier.
