Today was gorgeous. This time of the year is so fantastic. I arrived in the JUB before 1 p.m., delighted by a sign informing me that Dr. Magada-Ward’s classes had been canceled for the day. So I decided that instead of walking back to my car and driving home to wait for my 6 p.m. class, I would sit out in Peck Forest\/Walnut Grove and cram for my Death and Dying class exam. Sitting beneath the walnut and oak trees with fractured sunlight and yellow leaves falling all around me, I felt more content than I have in a long time. Ignoring the whump of walnuts falling precariously near me, I caught up on a month’s worth of material about death in varying cultures and palliative care.<\/p>\n

With several hours left to waste, I went to the Mass Comm building and reworked my resume. I talked to Ray Wong, who told me I needed to go for a two-year internship program for graduates at The Oregonian<\/a>.<\/span> I told him I was too broke to move right after college, but that he could fund me if he wanted. He didn’t say no. In the lab, I printed out several job openings posted on SND’s site. There are two Tennessee papers hiring designers right now, which is promising.<\/p>\n

I had lunch in the KUC and studied more for the Death and Dying test, which proved to be fairly useless because the exam was ridiculously easy. I finished in five minutes and left class by 6:15, with daylight to spare. I was yammering with a woman from my class when I heard Marie call out to me, so we did some quick catching up before I sped toward home to drop off the rent check and plant myself near the TV to watch the VP debate, which is coming on right now.<\/p>\n

So I’m going to watch it. Let’s hope it doesn’t kill my good mood, and the high spirits of the Kerry camp.
