The good luck emoticon is for me and for all of you who are writing final papers or taking final exams! I just handed in a huge paper I've been stressing over for weeks and now I just have one more paper due on Friday (but I'm not as stressed about this one) and then I will have finished my first graduate semester and I got A's in everything so far (except we don't know about the final papers yet...holding my breath). I don't want to jinx myself, but I'm pretty proud of my paper. When I read the final draft, I kept telling the kids, "Your mommy is SO smart!" I know. Obnoxious. But I love the way that feels. If there is no other reason to go to school, then I'd do it just for that high of tackling something like that paper and feeling great about it.

Just spreading good cheer and happiness. :-)

I'll take some of that good luck!!!

I also just turned in my first college paper. I can totally understand what you mean about feeling good and smart. It's really kind of a high. After I turned my paper I took a long bubble bath with a glass of wine and kept congratulating myself, lol.

My last paper is due on the 14th, but it's nothing compared to the monster paper I turned in Tues. I also have my finals for both classes but I'm not stressing much about those (yet).

Good luck coming back at ya ;)

Kel
