Done!

I am very excited to say I am FINISHED my first semester of grad school!

As of Thursday at 11:00pm when I emailed my last essay, I am officially on vacation!

Finals were definitely stressful. In less than 48 hours, I turned in 4 reading reports for philosophy, 1 essay connecting philosophy and my thesis, a completely revised version of my thesis proposal, an "Estado del Arte" (state of the art? lit review? what's the appropriate phrase in English?), and a 20-page essay/research paper.

Remember that to do list/countdown from a while back? It's looking much better now:

4 days until all my final assignments are turned in (eek, need to get them done!)


11 days until Chiapas (I think? plans are still changing/being made)

17 days until I'm home!

My visual countdown (of assignments/papers/exams) until the end of the semester:


Classes end November 26 and then we have two weeks of exams/turning in final papers.

Most notably on my "to do" list from now until the end of the semester:

  • complete revision of my thesis proposal
  • presentation on my thesis advances 
  • leading a class on Civil Society, to be accompanied with an essay 
  • 20+ page essay on qualitative approaches to studying return migration
  • 4 philosophy "reading reports"
  • 1 philosophy essay relating something we've seen in class to my thesis
  • essay on identity 
  • history exam
  • finishing Rotary report
