Have some composure, where is your posture?

[exsequar]

I don't know why you don't all yell at me when I get worked up like that. "ANNE YOU'RE BEING A DRAMA QUEEN," you should shout. "IT WILL BE FINE. STOP IT." Because it's always true! And this thing was a blip on the stress-dar, as far as these things go. When I start freaking out about my Honors Thesis defense, then it will be justified, but everything else, bitchslap me, alright?

In short, it went fine. A trickle of about 5 or 6 professors came by and asked questions, none too terribly challenging, and I handled myself fine. Dr. Thomsen and Dr. Brewer were a bit intimidating, but they actually both had really interesting ideas to contribute, so that was cool. Dr. Mehl, the scary one? Um. He kind of charmed my pants off (or skirt, actually). He was very sweet and just curious about the gist of my project, which I could totally handle, and when I mentioned I was going to Dublin for the year he gave me a blindingly beautiful smile. And. Um. I don't know if it's just this context? That he's really nice in? But er. I had him pegged rather incorrectly. Oops!

So all is well! It's Friday! I'm home! Ryan needs to sing all the time! It's Friday! YAY!

ETA: Hahahaha I JUST remembered that Dr. Mehl's first name is - you guessed it - RYAN. Haaaaa. This is hilarious. And I may have a mini crush on him now. WHAT.

Speaking of inappropriate crushes, I may or may not get a little frisson every time I see my organic chemistry teacher. YEAH THE FIFTY SOMETHING ONE WITH TWO DAUGHTERS. THAT ONE. *hides face*

I have been saying IT WILL BE FINE, STOP IT all year and you won't listen. I knew it would be fine. You may actually be WORSE than I used to be with all the 'I am going to DIE, I have no idea what I'm doing, it's going to be awful', which I didn't think possible.

So, the good scary professor, not so scary, kinda nice actually? I am happy to hear it.

Glad it went well, really glad. Waiting for pictures of the fantabulous posters.

Ha, yeah, I am pretty awful aren't I? I don't know. I don't trust my own intelligence because I don't feel intelligent. Meh.

Thanks for putting up with me and cheerleading :) *smish*

Pictures coming soon!
