This is Where I Get Off

Before I forget: Role Models, Taken, 30 Days of Night, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Paris, Je T'Aime

Last Saturday marked the end of my undergraduate journey. It really was a bittersweet moment. Why? Because as much as I disliked:

- Professors who thought they knew everything (There is more than one way to submit a case study!)
- Morning classes (The thought of seeing 7AM really does make me ill)
- Low internship pay rates (especially in the summer of '06 when gas ran me $55-$60 every five to six days)
- Tests! (I can't rant enough about this. Why grade me on my ability to memorize information when I'm going to forget it a month from now?)
- Course evaluations (does the administration even take those seriously?)
- The masses at the Ramsey gym (back off Fabio, I'm not done with this machine yet)

I'm going to miss it. All of it. Being a college student was great because it was predictable and unpredictable all at the same time. I could organize my semester however I wanted (to some extent), take naps at 3PM (which is when my energy level just goes to crap), and buy shots for $1 a pop (though I only did that a handful of times - I'm a lightweight). College was, in one word, cool.

Graduation was even better. I got some really amazing gifts from my family members, which did everything to convince me that I don't deserve them. God has really put some incredible people in my life, and I thank Him for that, along with getting me through some tough moments. Ahh well. What doesn't kill you will only make you stronger.

I would post some pictures, but chances are if you're reading this, you've already seen them on Facebook. On the other hand, it has been a while since I decorated this blog with some pictures.....






Au revoir, Georgia. You shall be missed.
