the end is fast approaching

i can hardly believe it, but in less than three weeks, i will be back in grand rapids. the thought is simultaneously delightful and terrifying.

i've been job searching on the internet a lot, and i feel like the prospects are few. combined with the stresses of school and work here in chicago, it is needless to say that i am feeling a bit overwhelmed.

i'll be making a six-hour visit to grand rapids on wednesday for honors convocation. i hate to skip class in chicago (especially since we will be going on a tour of neighborhoods that formerly housed the projects), but i really want to be there for my last time around. i've never been to one of these ceremonies before, and i am excited to get my medal!

the weather in chicago was lovely yesterday, and it almost makes up for the rain and chill of today. i would totally love for spring to make itself permanent...we are two thirds of the way through april.

there's a lot to get done before i move back, but i think it will all come together. most of all, i'm looking forward to all the lovely faces i left behind in the g-raps...(you all should know who you are).
