Wirklich? Ray hat seinen BS und BA?

JA!

So I graduated today. Unfortunately, I was sick. Boo.

Interesting tidbit. I went through all of the names for people who graduated this semester in my college. Grand total of like 11 or 12 summa cum laudes. I was the ONLY BS Biology summa, the ONLY BA Philosophy summa, and one of three historians. Apparently, the history people are really smart, because we had the most summas. But yeah, two of us accounted for five of the twelve summas graduating.

The nice thing is, graduation took like 2 hours.

So yea, now I'm Raymond Schultz, B.S., B.A., and total BADASS.

PLUS, I started on graduate school applications. My apps to Colorado State are already almost done. Fortunately, they do NOT require an original GRE score (they let me copy my grade report). I just need to hunt down my recommenders and write a statement.

Next on the docket will be CU-Boulder, followed promptly by Iowa, Connecticut (?), Boston College, and someplace else?

I started Irish this week, and I think I've gotten the verb "ta" down. I have broad and slender pronunciations down for maybe three consonants (not good...).

I also am reattempting my fascination with Latin---Bis das, si cito das.
Not that it's terribly hard.

I need to work on more French, German, and Greek too. I don't know how people like the pope do it, speaking like 14 languages or whatever. Everytime I try to focus on one of them, I lose focus on my other 5. I probably should brush up on Spanish too...
