It's all coming to an end!!!!

School is quickly coming to an end! I feel very consumed by it at this point so it's pretty much the only thing that i'll be writing about until things get settled down.

I have a Therapy and Counselling essay to do today and tomorrow, due on Tuesday! I've decided that i'm going to write it on problems and their treatment in Psychoanalysis and Gestalt therapy. After I finish this essay all I have to do is write up my results, for my honour's thesis research, in a paper and then hand that in on April the 10th. I'm still allowed to collect data after I hand this paper in. The only difference is that the modifications that I make to my paper with the newest results get handed in to my honour's thesis supervisor, whereas the April 10th one goes to an official "Reader", a random professor from the Psych department who will mark my paper *gulp*.

In other news, I am very close to finding out whether or not I am going to McGill next year for Cognitive Psychology. I've been chatting it up with a professor from the psych department there who seems very good natured and multitalented. All I have to do is read up on some neuroscience, show that I can gain a functional understanding of it, and tell her what aspects of her research interest me. I'm really hoping to go to McGill next year - I very much like Montreal!

I think it will be hard being away from my personal life when and if I'm at McGill. This goes especially for the very sweet and funny girl who i've been dating for about 2 months now. I wasn't expecting to start up a relationship before I moved away, but it looks like it is for the best anyway. One thing I know I'll learn while away is how to keep in contact with my loved ones without paying too much money in the process (I love you Skype :D).

Anyway, I don't want to get my hopes up concerning Grad school. I'll cross my fingers but at the same time will remember my back-up plan just in case!

Reflectively,

- Inkhorn

Hey Matthew!!!
I really really hope you get in! You deserve it! And though it'll be hard to have a long-distance relationship, it's doable and you'll both be stronger for it!
I'll call you soon and then I could really bother you! ;)
