University Favourites

So now that I'm almost done school (eeks!) I thought I would post a list of my favourite professors and classes in my main areas of study. However, first I did some overall "basics" of my education. A lot of this is for me, but I thought I'd post it on here ;)

English: 19 classes
History: 11 classes
Anthropology: 4 classes
GNED (one science and one philosophy): 2 classes
Humanities: 1 class
Language (French): 1 class
Romantic Studies (studying: France, Spain, Lebanon, Morocco, Italy): 1 class
Philosophy: 1 class

Semesters Total: 9
Roommates Total: 12 roommates (plus their friends). I normally say 16, because 4 other girls practically lived at our place.

Favourite Professors:

English:

·         Kelly Hewson
·         Kenna Olsen
·         Jane Drover

So there you have it! Even as stressful as it is, I'm really going to miss this place, especially my professors and my friends. Looking back at the last four and a half years, I've grown so much as a person. I've learned a lot about myself and who I want to be. I've gained a lot of self confidence. My entire university education tested me in ways I never expected.  I'm glad it's done now, but I'm going to really miss it.

I'M FINISHED MY UNDERGRADUATE CLASSES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! * runs around screaming* I am done my undergraduate classes! I have 8 days left until I am done my final exams, then I will have earned my undergraduate degree! I'm so excited. However, it still doesn't feel real...
