Graduation was a difficult ordeal. The drive down to Tallahassee was not overly long or unbearable but the ceremony kind of was. It consisted of over two hours of speeches and names spouted out like bullets. I was in such a daze that I didn't really hear my name announced, I just followed the instructions of the man motioning me to walk across the stage and shake hands. More importantly, my graduation pictures are awful! It was raining and my hair was poofy and everyone looked so drab with the cloudy sky. I'm not photogenic as it is but the whole thing was just unfair. I think the professional ones were the worst! Even my mother agreed. I've already mentioned the hair issue but I don't even know what was going on with my face. I can't describe it and I'm going to spare anyone else from seeing the horror of those pictures. When I return the cap and gown to my friend she and I are going to take some mock-graduation photos. They will look better and my mother will be happy. I just want the piece of paper to hang on my wall. It should arrive in about a month. I got an 'A' in my final class which felt better than actually graduating. I'm proud of myself. So...it's officially all over---Huzzah!!!!!!
I'm about 99.9% done with my Christmas shopping! I only have one person left to buy for and I'll do that tomorrow. My love of the whole 'stocking-stuffer' only gifts for the fam has increased this year. I'll be taking tons of pictures of my family and friends this year because I have a nifty camera. I'll get some photo paper and hopefully be able to frame them to decorate my barren apartment walls. I'll also post some for the viewing pleasure of the hundreds of people that visit my blog each day!! (that was clearly a joke)
