The Tassel Was Worth The Hassle!

It appears as though my time has finally come to leave the collegiate age, and enter the working world! Last week I turned in all my final paperwork, moved the proverbial tassel, and this week I am officially a college graduate and unemployed! I feel like a million bucks, and probably owe about that much as well. I guess it comes with the territory. I am so grateful for all the support from my family and friends. My family was the utmost driving force in my educational endeavors.


With the exception of my cap not suiting my full-size head as aptly as I would have liked, the day went off without a hitch! It was fabulous to see my family cheering me on. My plans for the future include getting a job and then going back to school. Call me nutty, but I got a little misty eyed as I watched frantic underclassmen cross University Rd. with their noses entrenched in their textbooks as the headed for their finals. I love school!!!

Due to scheduling conflicts (too many fun parties last weekend) my mom is throwing a little get-together this Friday (12/21). We sent out invites, but if you didn’t receive one, all the info. is below! Hope you can make it!
