graduate

So I graduated in December. Did you know that? It's taken me this long to actually come to terms with the whole thing. It has been really weird for me to not be in school. I always loved classes, tests, papers, and all the other stresses of school. And now it's over and has been for a few months. Well, I am now making the end of my college career official this weekend at the graduation ceremony on Saturday.

School has been a huge part of my life and this is quite an accomplishment for me. I'm a little--actually I'm super excited and proud of myself. So I think I have some bragging rights. I made a short list of my Utah State happenings over the last three years of my life.

1-I graduated Magna Cum Laude. I'm really excited and happy about that accomplishment.
2-Most Embarrassing moment at USU: falling flat on my butt running to the bus. You see I had the entire bus stop and the entire bus pointing and laughing at my helpless self laying on the ground. That made for a good start to a day!
3- My lowest grade was a B+. I got three of them. I'm still upset about one. Grrr!
4- Most pointless class of my life: Intelligent Life in the Universe. Yes. It's a real class and I took it...and a few naps in it. Thank you general requirement classes!
5- Class I learned the most in: Advanced Family Finance. Its about investing and estate planning. It was super hard and really kicked my butt--to be blunt.
6- I had awesome roommates every year. I had too much fun with them. Good memories.
7- The best part of my college experience at Utah State. Meeting my husband. That topped it off for me.

ok really now I've tried to leave you a good message and for whatever reason the computer keeps kicking me out and doesnt leave my messages. I think I've figured it out now so maybe this one will get posted. I just read your blogs of the past little while and had to tell you, you do such a great job posting all this stuff I guess I need to log on more often and read them. Glad to hear Jason is so helpful...he's a great cook too isn't he? Loved the pictures. Keep posting all the fun

Love michael
