What a long week. For as long as I’ve been in school, October always seems to be the busiest / craziest / longest / shortest month of the year. It seems like all of the major projects and midterms and presentations hit in October, and this one has been no exception.

About an hour ago I finished my first literature review in the learning design program, and it was no easy task. I’ve always been able to “stay up late” or “wait until the last minute” to complete my school work, but I am finding that to be less and less true in grad school. Grad work really takes thinking, planning, analyzing and synthesizing material, and you really can’t do a good job at it last minute. I find myself enjoying the topics I am studying and writing about, so I feel like I am producing a higher quality of work than I ever have in the past. Now I just hope I can find the perfect thesis topic or major project so that this feeling continues =)
