Time for reflection
Aaand...I'm back. I've been relatively elusive lately. When I have written it hasn't been very substantial, and that would be a complement. Unfortunately I'm too tired and sick to do outstanding work right now...but I'll give it a half-shot.
I finished my last school assignment of the semester this afternoon. Now all I have left is a bunch of grading to do, then I'll be ready to go home. This leads to a bunch of questions:
- How did I do this semester?
- Is grad school everything I expected it to be?
- What have I learned?
- What haven't I learned?
- Am I moving in a general direction toward where I really want to be?
- Am I happy? Am I making others happy?
- Was the cross-country move worth everything I gave up?
- How's the cold weather treating me?
- Do I miss California?
- Where do I see myself in 5 years? 10 years? 1.5 years?
- What am I doing for the break?
- What am I doing this summer?
- What have I accomplished over the last semester?
- What will I strive to accomplish next semester?
- What kinds of personal relationships have I built?
- Is Indiana really basketball heaven?
- Any regrets?
- What could I have worked harder on?
- What am I most proud of?
- Am I upholding the high standards I set for myself?
I think that list will do for now. In the next few days I will set out to answer these questions, and perhaps others. If you have others you'd like to see answered, please leave a comment, and maybe I'll answer it. For now I'll send my aching body to dreamland...
