In the last 100 days.

In the last 100 days, I have slept less than 500 hours. I have pulled 7 all-nighters.

I have submitted 29 homework assignments and 39 lab reports. I have written 9 midterms in the last 100 days.

In the last 100 days I have been to the doctor’s 13 times and filled 12 prescriptions. I have packed 63 snacks for kindergarten and scrounged enough for 3 show-and-tells. I have given 5 lice treatments in the last 100 days.

In the last 100 days, I have made 300 bottles. I have changed 300 diapers. I have built 26 circuits and written 28 programs. I spent 6 weekends at school, and have done over 200 loads of laundry in the last 100 days.

In the last 100 days, I drank 300 cups of coffee. I was out with friends 3 times, and have watched 4 movies in the last 100 days.

I have had 2 complete meltdowns.

I want to say I survived. I want to say “it was tough, but I’m tougher.” And yet..

I don’t know how I did it. I don’t know how I look at the calendar now. And see all that’s left is 4 final exams in the next 10 days. Twelve hours of exams to determine how much I did or did not learn in the last 100 days. Do or die, I suppose. Next semester won’t be as bad. I look forward to the next 100 days.
