Education (and also golf)

Personal rant incoming. I promised myself I'd update this thing every day, and this is what's on my mind right now.

Today, I submitted my last school assignment outside of my thesis.

I've been in school my whole life. This feels so weird, man. I guess I can't run from the real world anymore.

Grad school has been great. A normal ride, for once. I do alright in school, people treat me well (outside of the staff never answering e-mails, ever, even when I absolutely need them to, oh God please answer your e-mail, my future depends on it, it's an hour before a massively important due date why is your silence still vexing me), my teachers respect me, I get my work done in a timely fashion, I'm actually enjoying what I do, I'm academically challenged, and I love it. But it's over, now.

I have my comprehensive exam in a week, but right now, I'm slacking off, because I haven't been able to slack off in forever, despite doing it all the time when I was younger. Where will I go from here, I wonder? A week from now, when and if I pass that exam, where will life decide to take me?

Tomorrow, I'll post something substantial rather than ramble.

Edit: Nevermind, I lied. I discovered something very substantial. There is such a thing as glow golf.

Where was this when I was playing laser tag and going to stupid, regular mini golf? Why wasn't this more popular? I can only imagine the trance and/or dubstep playing in the background as the neon golf balls land in their radiant holes, making that arcadey "ding, you win" sound of jubilant triumph as your score is electronically racked up on a digital scoreboard.
