So many things to do
I know, I know, all I seem to talk about lately is how much stuff I have to do. But it's true. My independant research project now has an intro and a methods section, though both are still kinda rough (big thanks to Mike, for the help he has given on editing thus far). My migraine paper is now 10 pages of bullet-pointed notes, with a really badly written intro paragraph. I suppose that will need to have actual sentences and organization soon. My lab project has a pretty much blank powerpoint, with slides that say great things like "Introduction" and "Results," where we need to insert all of our data and stuff. My presentation on narcolepsy now has all the things done that have nothing to do with the presentation (it's actually a case study/lesson plan project, with a little presentation tacked on).
If you need visuals to understand how my life is going right now, here's a picture of what my independant study project looks like currently:

This is just the material for one project, so my life as a whole actually looks more like this:

Just imagine a couple leotards and pairs of dance pants thrown on the pile, and that's pretty much my room.
Okay, okay, I'm done whining. A few more days and I'm done!!! I got a couple names of Hope grads in NYC today, so maybe I'll get some help on an apartment for next year (exciting stuff). My comp piece went off wonderfully at the Student Dance Concert the other night, they danced it great and the adjudicators really seemed to like it. Steven's quote was: "Simplicity is hard, but you handled it well." That may sound odd, but his big thing is "Acts of simplicity are as important as acts of complexity," so that was actually a great compliment. I tried to take pictures, but I wasn't looking through the camera (I wanted to see it in real-life, not through the lens), so I mostly got pictures of the upstage left curtain. I'll have a video, though, so it's okay.
K, back to work. Endblog.

I'm glad you opted to look at your dancers in real life, not through a video viewer. I'm hoping you'll do that with your whole life, live it in real time, feeling the waves hit your senses, smelling and tasting life NOW, and leaving the memories (or videos) to sort themselves out later. Now dive into that pile of work and come up carrying some pearls of papers--Mom
