sagaciously is...

*sigh* Another MIA stint, and another promise to do better. I swear y'all, I really appreciate those who stuck with me, the supportive comments, and "what's up?" emails - 'cause they really keep me going.

But don't get me wrong - a sister is SOOOOOOO excited.

I'm coming around the bend this semester - I can finally hear the Finish Line (even if I can't see it - I know it's there).

The expected graduation date: December 15, 2007!

I got a note from the graduate "facilitator" (basically, the chick that makes it happen) for my school, saying that I need to apply for graduation. Now, it caught me completely offguard, because frankly - I've been staring intently at the bottom of the grindstone, trying to figure out how it sheared my nose clean off.

Meanwhile, I'm (sorta) holding my own in some classes (although my prof's have both warned me that while my work is high quality, my attendance is leading me down the road to B), and getting over some hurdles at work.

The downside: I'm seriously thinking I may have to give up this space. Stop blogging completely. See, I know quite a few folks who do this way better than I, and I read them often. It's really making me feel bad about the neglect. Also, there are so many things I should probably be doing with my spare time.

The upside: I'm (planning on) going to South America next year in August, to be exact. My MBA is actually in International Business and Information Technology (undergrad in Computer Information Systems) and requires that I complete a Study Abroad trip before graduation. Well, the trip details have been confirmed ('cept for the $$$ which I need to work on). Basically it's 14 days, 7 in Buenos Aires, Argentina and 7 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. WOO-HOO!!

The thing about it, is of course - along with the trip being the shiznit - I will want to document it. So I don't want to give up the blog. Well, I have many other reasons, but you get the idea.

So while I'm really excited (about getting closer to graduation, and the trip), I'm also torn. I'm mulling it all over...
