OMG! Yay!

[evilhippo]

My day is so totally made! I've got until 8 to finish this paper and it's a mess, but guess what was waiting for me in my inbox when I got back from lunch??

Dear [evilhippo],

I am delighted to inform you that the Master of the College, Mario Santana, has accepted the Department's recommendation that you be awarded Honors in the English Concentration.

I congratulate you on the superb work you have done this year and throughout your career at Chicago, and I send you all best wishes for the future.

Sincerely,

Christina von Nolcken

HAPPY DANCING FOR ALL OMG I AM ACTUALLY GRADUATING WITH HONORS OMG. (Unless I don't finish these papers and they revoke it, or the e-mail was sent to me accidentally, but omg.) Oooh I so didn't actually expect this, yay!

P.S. It's only 6:30 now and I'm almost done with this paper. Hooray for motivation! Even though I'm not going to get any sleep at all until I finish the other two.

Apparently the University Theatre seniors who partied with David Bevington (old prestigious Shakespeare scholar) came back drenched in champagne. Clearly this is the new Cool Thing to Do. ^_^

Of course, I'm still paranoid because I suspect things still kind of hinge on me doing at least moderately well this quarter. Stupid never-ending papers.

::parties anyway... at least a little::

You completely deserve it, you really do. And honors recognition will probably actually help you with work creds. Unlike me where they're like, Uh, no. XD

Employers obviously don't know what they're looking for anyway, considering how many of them have huge stocks of incompetent or lazy employees (I'm going to temporary pretend that that's not just a matter of what percentage of people in the world are disconcertingly dull).
