(Week of 12/7 Post) : Getting it all together...

...that's basically what Melissa and I are doing during our final days as undergraduate students at the Missouri School of Journalism. It seems there are a million little loose ends to tie up: making sure graduation information is complete and accurate; turning in minor and multicultural certificate forms; studying for the GRE; completing take-home tests; preparing for our At the End of Slavery capstone presentation; meeting with professors, mentors and friends before heading home for Christmas; and lots of other random little things.

It's all good though! As my dad continues to remind me: I don't have to do all these things; I get to do all these things. As stressful as they may be, I get to be stressed about the details that come along with the privilege of attending and graduating from university - and specifically, the best school of journalism in the world. As cheesy as that may sound, it's true, and this is something that I don't want to take for granted. I am very, very blessed.
