Now that I no long have distractions to get in the way, I'm going to be finishing my thesis. Not much more I can say about that. Pay my tuition, finish my thesis, defend, and get the hell out.

Now that I'm not working, the longer I'm in school, the longer I'm out of work, the longer I'm in debt. I won't tolerate being treated like I don't matter simply because I'm not on campus anymore, simply because I'm a part time student, simply because I've been around since Sept. '05.

I know where I am, I know where I need to be, and I know how to get there. All it takes is some determination and patience. Once I'm all done, then I can enjoy life again and be content. Until then, I'm in battle mode.
