This Is It!

I can't even believe that this is my final year at the 'Hurst--it seems like it was yesterday that my Mom, Dad, and brother were dropping me off and moving me into McAuley Hall. But here I am, a big, bad, senior, and just 8 months removed from the real world.

Unless you count grad school, then it's 2 years and 8 months away from the real world. It's scary to think that I'm already planning and preparing for my life post-Mercyhurst. I take the GRE (Graduate Record Exam, like the SAT but for grad school) next Thursday, and I'm not going to lie, I'm a bit intimidated and worried about the exam. All I can do is prepare all I can and hope for the best!

This year has been exciting so far--I'm interning for the Erie Center for Design and Preservation, and getting all the Senior year work underway. Again, I can't believe that it's come to this, the last year of undergrad!

This year has been full of football games, game nights, hockey games, and of course plenty of course work and studying. And inevitably, I've reunited with my best friends: coffee and Tylenol.
