I graduate college tonight!!!

Oh my gosh I'm so excited. But at the same time it is a little unsettling to realize that I am really on to being a real adult. Not that I didn't work my tush off at school, but I am finding after my internship time, I would really quite enjoy just being a professional student for life
I am taking a bit of a break the first month or so of summer to go on that trip to Europe with my brother and then my working life begins.

I will try and post some pictures this weekend from tonight if I get the chance.

I'm so worried because I have been sooooo sick all day from something I ate at dinner last night and now I'll be all anxious about sitting through hours of a ceremony with no way to get out, or have water, or anything. Oh well, I'll have to try. Wish me luck!!

congratulations and all the best with your future career. You are going to find that your life will get better and better once you leae college. I loved college too but I usually didn't have any money to enjoy things, I was always working. WHen I got my job after college, let me tell you, I had and continue to have a blast!

You did your internship already, right? How did that go, or is that still yet to come? Do you have a job lined up?

Congrats, and hope the ceremony went OK! The trip to Europe sounds great.

THANKS EVERYONE! (and a few photos) new

Thanks to everyone for the congratulations and well wishes. It was really a great evening and such a surreal experience. The ceremony went great and the speaker and everything was just so nice. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect evening. It was so bittersweet though, but a very positive finish to one part of my life and a start to the next part.

So here are a few pictures. It was held in our performing arts center which is on the Sarasota Bay so the perfect place for pictures.

Before the ceremony with my brothers



And then my parents


Me and the school President with my diploma - a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interior Design (note the snazzy honors cord - the school doesn't do any other recognitions like cum laude type stuff, so this is as special as it gets)



The classic grad, flag, diploma shot


After the ceremony...


So that's it for now. Thanks again everyone!!!

It was so exciting but still a bit sad at the same time - and I was really not thinking I would be at all. I can't wait to see pictures and hear about yours!! It's coming up soon!!!
