Waiting

Today is the day of waiting. Im getting things done that I need to get done, but I feel like I am just sitting on my butt all day. I got up really early so that I could get to Kinkos by 8am so that I could pick up the copy of my thesis for my dept chair. Then walked back to my building and got my advisor to sign my sheet. She freaked me out by saying I may need to go back to Kinkos to fix something. I then sat around for 45min waiting for my other committee member to sign my sheet. Thankfully she said I didn't have to fix the thing my advisor wanted. Then I sat in the computer lab doing busy work and reading stupid websites for 2.5 hours. Got bored of the comp lab, so watched the kids playing for a bit, and then decided to try my last committee member a little early. Luckily she was there so I got her to sign them and then ran back to my departments office. Of course I missed the secretary, she was out for lunch. Why do I always need to do something in the office when I know she will be out to lunch? So here I am, back in the computer lab wasting more time until 12:45-1ish where I can finally turn in my thesis to my dept chair and go home for a bit. We are supposed to have a honor society meeting tonight, but we will see if I go. I need a nap.

The grad students life is like the soldiers life. Hurry up and wait. Hurry up and wait. But it's on your department chair's desk so your almost done...
