Big Day Tomorrow
You'll have to excuse my punctuation, because my period button is broken due to my son's desire to use the keyboard as a surf board I need to dig out my old one
Anyway, big day tomorrow My college grad happens tomorrow evening, and it's an odd feeling
It's pretty cool in that I finally get recognized for something I thought I'd never do, but at the same time, I don't really feel that I've accomplished anything I'm not working, or anything, and it seems that all I really did was found something to occupy a year of my life
I finished Law Enforcement Foundations at a private career college (the name of which I refuse to print, in the off chance that someone may actually read this, and go there), and let's face it: I look like a bouncer or a prison guard; so it seemed like a good field to go into ( I still plan to, but my back injury is a major roadblock) I wish I'd have thought to go to a proper school, but it seemed like a good idea to get to work in a year, instead of the two it took at a real college Little did I know, that technical schools are the biggest crock of shit in the scholastic universe
I hate the school, hate the fact that I'm 30,000 dollars in debt because of it GODDAMMIT, I want that cap and gown That's why we go to college, ain't it?
My dad and I have a tenuous relationship at best, and for some reason, I invited him to the grad I don't know what I was thinking (oh yeah, My grand mother needed a ride) Maybe it's my way of sticking it to him: "I did it, so fuck you!" The little kid in me wants Daddy's approval, but the adult wants to shove the diploma right up his ass
My mom however, was instrumental in me getting through school She helped in ways I can't even begin to describe She helped me financially, spiritually, and she kept my morale up when I wanted to quit Thanks, mom; I love you
My girlfriend, Crystal, kept me going too She stood by me when I was being a dick, and freaking out over stupid shit
My buddy Joe helped a ton too He watched the monster I call a son, so Crystal and I could go to school at night Thanks, bro
Mainly, I want to thank MY FUCKING SELF! I did the work, I sweated the exams, and I did the research
Anyway, I'm off to bed to get a (hopefully) good night's sleep I have a big day full of "Fuck you daddy, but love me" to look forward to
Cheers
Cooper
