jazzfishI just sent off my tech writing final project.
Barring horrible unforeseen circumstances, that's the last bit of undergrad work I'll ever have to do.
(Such circumstances could include Dr Moss saying "Yes, well, two years is a bit long to wait to finish an incomplete, isn't it?" or Lisa Liebtrau saying "These watercolors are crap. Do them again, and good this time," or, um, I guess it's still theoretically possible for me to fail tech writing but I think Jen Mooney is tired of seeing me skulking around the English department.)
I'm . . . really not sure how I feel about this. Relieved, I think, coupled with 'unready.' Big world out there beyond the Tech campus, and I've been here for more than a third of my life. We'll see, I guess.
