"Ain't No Feeling Like Being Free"

Dec 18, 2007 11:26

So it still feels weird to be a college graduate, not to say that I'm not thankful, Lord and Lady know that I am. Just that I've been involved in school in one way or another for as long as I can remember and now I don't have plan my classes for next semester...or the semester after that.

Graduation itself was nice, I kept smiling on the inside and I liked the ceremony that went into the graduation process, made it more official than if I hadn't walked. Dinner with the family was nice, made even more so with the company of Shareese, Meaghan, and Jenn B.

As for plans after college, a question that everyone keeps asking, I'm going to save up money for my Get The Hell Out of Bama/Grad School with Shareese Fund (contributions are welcome), learn French and eventually Japanese, maybe take violin lessons and visit the library more and continue learning the things that I want to learn.

It's nice to know that I made people proud, genuinely proud and not just my family, my friends too. I made myself proud. I think of all the people that don't go to college for one reason or another and then I think of the people that don't even finish college or if they do they're like 32 or something.

So now my chains are finally broken. All of the things I couldn't do before because of classes and studying are no more.

And this makes me smile.

Peace. Out.

college graduate, free, happiness, wonder, complete
