I've let a collection of coffee mugs begin to grow in my room. Most of my fellow students prefer to collect empty containers intended for a very different kind of beverage. My collection is of the caffeinated kind, not because I take pride in showing how many medium roasts I've pounded during the last week, but because I trudge home after working on thesis chapters, set my cup down on the nearest solid surface and collapse onto the nearest soft surface. I now have just 2 weeks left before I'd really like to have a complete draft.
It has been a stressful week here in the suite. Each of us is writing a thesis. The MCAT is looming for Roommate 1, and Roommate 2, being Japanese, is balancing her thesis edits with checking on her family's post-earthquake status.
Just a few more days until spring break.
