What's up gang
Just popping in quick and taking a break from writing this long ass 20 page paper on Apocalypse Now. If you haven't seen this movie...seriously check it out. It's mind blowing really. It's a really twisted and hallucenigenic story that takes place during the Vietnam War. It's a long movie, clocking in at about 2 1/2 hours, but the newly release Redux version is about 3 hours and 20 minutes. Some parts are hilarious, but for the most part is just wild and just wow..it was really cool. I guarantee you have never seen a flick like this ever before. Since I liked the movie so much, it makes doing this huge paper not so bad. I already had to do a 30 minute presentation on it last Friday which went okay...could have gone better, but whatever.
So I graduate with my Masters in like 2 weeks, although I won't get my degree officially until next October, since I need to take 2 courses online over the summer. But it turns out I received The Faculty Award for Academic Excellence for my program...I guess only one person gets it from each program, and yours truly is the recipient this year.
I'm definitely proud of myself, but only have God to thank however for the opportunities He's given me to make it this far and to bless me with this award. This is going to look great on my resume along with all my other accomplishments. I don't sit back and realize how many opportunities and blessings He's bestowed upon me enough...I don't think many of us do. I mean, the fact that I'm going to have a freeking master's degree is pretty wild. I never thought I'd go to grad school, nevermind do as well as I have. I'm blessed with parents who have supported me so ridiculously much that its mind blowing at times. Especially considering how disastrous my Freshman year of college was spirtually, physically, emotionally and academically. It was total hell, and here I am now...man oh man. Seriously, if God didnt lift me up and help me get my crap together, who knows.
I've had my rent/school paid for (minus some loans i need to pay off), car repairs, spending money, and then some, not to mention being able to consider my parents not only family, but best friends. Many people have to pay their own way through school, along with expenses, working full or part time etc. I mean really..thank you God for giving me so much.
So anyway, back to this paper, or maybe video games...haven't really decided yet. Most likely the latter, since God has also blessed me with being extraordinary at procrastination.
Anyway, hope you're all doing well. If anything is new or exciting in your life, lemme know. Or just say hi. Comments are always nice to get.
Talk to yall soon
