Six days until graduation.
*
I woke this morning before my alarm clock went off, and I was really, truly awake. I don't remember the last time that happened when someone wasn't sick. The digital display glowed 6:13 in my face, and I had no desire to turn back over to embark upon my daily battle with the snooze button.
Getting out of bed, I felt good. In the last fifteen minutes or so, I've noticed that my shoulders aren't hunched. I'm sitting and standing a bit straighter. My back doesn't hurt today. I'm smiling for no reason. I feel lighter somehow.
Last night, I completed my oral final in Spanish. My math class is done. All that's left is the written Spanish final, and that will be done from home.
I hadn't been able to see how run-down I'd become with the weight of all these classes. It's like suddenly letting out that whoosh of air when you didn't even realize you'd been holding your breath.
