Why am I so sappy?

So in the past, I would have never considered myself an emotional girl, but lately I think I've just become a sentimental mush. With graduation only 2 weeks away, and knowing that in about a month I will be moving away, I guess the realization that Im actually leaving is finally setting in. This week our department had a graduation dinner to honor all the seniors and they were talking about moving on to the next phase of our lives, and I just couldnt help but feel a sort of sadness as I looked at the classmates I may never see again. Then yesterday I had an end of the year evaluation with my professor and field instructor, and they were saying such complimentary things about me, and how much they would miss me, and again I became emotional. To top all things off, today when I was doing home visits, I stopped by the apartment of one of my old clients and she had just had a baby 6 days ago, so I got to sit down with her, visit and hold a week old baby...and of course I went to mush. I've put so much heart into the people that I work with and I will miss them so much...
However, dont get me wrong...Im very excited about entering into the next phase of my life. I know it will hold many adventures and joyful experiences, I just think that its normal to feel a sort of loss when change is about to happen. But I dont know...maybe Im experiencing so many varied emotions right now that Im not even making any sense...

Procrastinating as always.....

So I am still working on my paper that is due tomorrow morning...well i guess i should say is due in a few hours. But my neck and back are hurting and i cant really think...so i think im going to call it a night and get up early in the morning to finish working on it...Oh the joys of college life! Why do I always procrastinate?

Why is it that when i have the most to do that I lack any motivation to get it done? For the past 2 1/2 hours I have been sitting in front of my computer trying to work on 1 of 3 projects due next week, and how much do I have done? Well, approximately 3 sentences! What is my problem...all i really want to do is just go to bed and sleep through the next 3 weeks until graduation. That way everything will magically get done on its own and i wont have to worry about it...If only that was the case...life would be so much more enjoyable...

I-L-L-I-N-I

For those who doubted the Illini's ability...well they somehow made it to the NCAA Championship GAME with a clear, decisive victory over Louisville today. Some unexpected yet amazing performances by Rev. Roger Powell, Jack Ingram, and Nick Smith as well as the usual greatness by the famous starters! Good luck to Michigan State as they take on UNC in the next game... We look forward to seeing you on the court again on Monday :)
