done. done. done.
I just had my last class of graduate school and I honestly can’t even think straight right now. I obviously worked to the last minute to get my final project done. Then I hopped on the T and sat on it for an hour. An entire hour. When it should take me 20 minutes to get to class. I ended up being about 25 minutes late to class and my class was not in our classroom. So I (along with another guy from my class who had been on the green line as well) wandered from bar to bar looking for them. We finally found them, had a couple beers (on my teacher, how nice!), ate my cupcakes, and went home. Rather than get back on the miserable T, I walked home. Now I suddenly feel completely drained, like I could pass out and sleep forever. Maybe it’s the last 2.5 years of not sleeping catching up with me. Anyway, I should probably be out partying, but it’s Monday night and I don’t have too many friends up for that. But I’m definitely going out and celebrating some night this week (or maybe several). I kinda think I deserve it.
I’m leaving you with one of my fave ever live performances of my fave artist Ryan Adams. The lyrics in this song are so powerful and Ryan’s voice is pretty much amazing. I think it says something when you like a singer live better than you like him or her in the studio (though I love the harmonica in the studio version of this). Ryan makes me happy when nobody else can. Off to dreamland I go!

WOW! CONGRATULATIONS! You’ve got all kinds of time to celebrate, I’m sure last night was 3 years of backlogged adrenaline letting go!

Congratulations on being done! What are you going to grad school for?

Congratulation- you rock. Enough said.

Congratulations on being done!!!! I finish my last two classes ever tomorrow. I’m beyond elated. Its odd how when you finish something so big all the adrenaline rushes out of you and you feel like you could sleep for years. I finished my thesis presentations and nearly passed out on the floor in the back of the room.
Enjoy your celebrating! You deserve it!

Congrats!! How exciting to be done. Hope you get a chance to celebrate multiple times this week, you deserve it!

YAY! Congrats!! I am so proud of you and all of your hard work. I hope you definitely go out and do a little celebrating at some point, because you have earned it. If I was in Boston, I’d take you out for drinks, weekday or not.

Congrats!! I am REALLY jealous, I have 2 electives left before I call it a wrap on my grad school life.
Hopefully you have big plans this weekend to celebrate your completion!

CONGRATS!!!! I totally know how you feel! When I finished law school and the Bar exam I did not go out and party, I just slept and lazed around for days with the wonderful freeing feeling of having NOTHING hanging over my head. Enjoy!
