Famous Last Words: The Road to Finals Begins
How is already week 15? There is no way that Dead Week is seriously here. It feels like just yesterday I was looking over this semester's syllabuses wondering how I was going to keep up with it all and now we are here at the end. I am so beyond ready for this semester to be over, though. This has been one of the most challenging semesters of my time in university. Today, I will get my assignments for my final papers due next week and I am very nervous to see what I will need to do. Thankfully, with my linguistics courses I won't have to worry about that struggle to remember things talked about in the first week of class and then never touched on again. With this major, we build on what we learn and broaden the definitions as the semester goes on.
I have made myself a super nice, color coded schedule for the next two weeks. When I have huge assignments looming over me, I tend to procrastinate by getting organized. I tell myself that I am being productive, because this will help me work better. It's really just me avoiding my problems and making them look prettier.
I spent over an hour last night marking my textbook with color coded sticky tabs marking the chapters, important theories, and useful data sets. I told myself it was to make it easier to look up references when writing my final papers. In reality, it was to avoid writing this blog post and a couple of others.
Hopefully I find my motivation to finish out the semester strong. Unfortunately, it looks like it has already left for summer vacation.

Good luck to everyone in their final few days of the semester
