Happy Days Are Here Again!

Quals are over!  Quals are over!! I repeat Quals are over!!!  As of today, I am one step closer to starting my dissertation work and being able to write those three little letters after my name.  I know in my last post I was complaining about some of the criticism I received throughout this whole process, but I have to say that a good portion of it really did help me as I worked to construct my answers to questions 1 and 2.  So, maybe I was a little dramatic with my last post, but hey I have a tendency to be like that, especially when I am stressed out. 

Now that I these things are behind me I can finally take down my Christmas tress.  I have been trying not to go into my living room and my basement since the 1st of the month.  Thank goodness I have fake ones!  My office looks like a bomb went off in it!  My one job for tonight is to put it back together. 

Overall, the process wasn't too bad.  It was time consuming, but I feel I did a good job of balancing classwork and fun.  Going to the Pinstripe Bowl and the Giants' Wlidcard Playoff Game was an awesome way to break things up.  It also didn't hurt that both stadiums served gluten free beer!


Now for the long wait...I'm done for the night.  Sorry for the total lack of imagination or wittiness here, not that I am ever witty...My brain is still stuck in APA mode. 
Pinstripe Bowl--GO RU!!

Giants Football and Redbridge Make Everything Better!
