Well, my medication has begun to do its work, I think.  My moods seem to be leveling off somewhat.  For this, I am very thankful.  There’s the homeostasis.

 As for honorable happenings, I’ve been given honor after honor by the staff here at school.  I’ve been asked to teach courses, referred as a student aid, and greatest of all, I was approached by a professor to collaborate with him on a paper to present at a conference next spring.

 I am extremely honored that I was hand-picked and approached by a faculty member.  I don’t imagine that faculty often picks a second-year undergraduate student with which to work on a paper for presentation and possible publication.

 This year, though difficult, has been good, and next semester is going to be great as well, as I work on a couple of papers for presentation and possible subsequent publication.  I’m extremely grateful for being given the chance to start my academic career so early in the game.
