It's official, I am now an alumni of the Univ. of New Haven. Graduation went well, I sat there thinking, "did four years really just pass me by like that?" It was a huge mix of emotions, happiness, sadness, etc. I was actually proud of myself for not crying, I thought I would be an emotional mess. But I held it together, tho I did get a little choked up. I hate saying good bye especially to the people I've grown so close to. They have touched my life in so many ways that they'll never know. Next year is just not going to be the same without seeing them as much (if ever).
Senior week was a lot of fun. Campbell Crawl went pretty well- hung out with Casey and Osman. Amanda kinda ditched us for Becky which was fine. Wednesday I had an over all shitty day, I wanted to go to the beach w/ Amanda; however, my parents called and changed the day they wanted to pick up some stuff- to that day. So I had to cancel all my plans after building closing and pack stuff. Later that night I hung out in Becky's room, which was good. Thursday - six flags and medieval times. The buses were late- so only 4.5 hrs of ride time. So we only got on 3 rides. Kingda Ka- broke down while we were waiting which sucked cause i really wanted to go on that one ride. The biggest mistake we ever made was going on a water ride a half hour before we were supposed to get on the bus and go to dinner. We got SOAKED. Medieval times was good- it was definately a different experience. Friday I had my RA end of the year brunch... another event I thought I would be sad about. I got a little choked up cause I'm going to miss the RA staff so much, especially my staff. I was kinda mad that they hardly used any of the photos that I sent them for the slide show :( not cool. Saw Xmen3 with Carl,Cece, and Kelli. Had dinner @ the cafe (for my last time everrrrrrrrr) and then had a RA end of the year gathering in my room. More people showed up then I had thought- which made me really happy. Granted it wasn't as crazy as they used to be...but I still had a great time and some hilarious photos.
Saturday-graduated. Went out to dinner with the family. Then went out with Nikki, Des, and her boyfriend. I had a really good time. When we came back we saw Anthony and Jake sneaking around our building- so we hung out with them for a bit. Anthony and I talked for a looooooong time last night- about the year in general, our staff, the rest of the staff, and the future staff. I hadn't laughed that hard in a long time... I'm gonna miss that kid. I know "michael" is already missing him haha.
Today, moved back home. Said good bye to a few people- did good- no crying :) Of course the people that did come say good bye will be around during the summer, minus Casey :( )- so I'll see them- so I can't get too choked up.
enough blah- more relaxing. All I have to say is that this was quite a year that I'm sad to see go and sad to be leaving.
