Conclusion of a Week

in four hours, another conclusion of a week will come to pass. I'm still in the game, don't get me wrong, but with one more week completed, I'm one step closer to finishing out the semester with strength. it's refreshing to turn in a project and know that you will do fine. I prefer A's, but a B will suffice. and if I happen to merit a C, then I know that I passed and that I made it past the threshold with some feeling of completion. the weekend brings freedom, but this weekend will be about work. although I have to work, I will blend it with some free time. the hot tub is a good place to unwind your coils, and relax. seems like the moments go by faster these days. I can remember when I was a teenager, and the days would last for eons. now, I'm scrambling just to get enough daylight in my hours so that I can accomplish what I set out to do. there is a great joy when you finally complete the objective at hand. as of now, I have only one paper due, a portfolio, and two finals. I know in my mind that I will succeed, but to what degree I'm not sure. in hindsight, I have studied some interesting themes, and have read interesting novels of fiction and works of non-fiction. I can say, when I step away from this semester and let it trickle slowly into the etched past, that I have really expanded my mind and my repertoire by what I have studied this past semester. one week left, and then finals. as usual, things always work out, but the prize is given to those who struggle and strive and work diligently for that preferred result. have I said what I wanted to say in this entry? I think the gist is that when you get to Friday, and you have achieved all you can achieve in that small space of time, from Monday morning to Friday afternoon, congratulate yourself for a week of hard work, and merge lanes into the rest and relaxation of the weekend.
