"It's a wonderful day....
...in the neighborhood, won't you be mine? Won't you be mine?"
Don't ask me why but that Mr. Roger's song came to my head when I asked myself how I felt about this past weekend. =) Everything is DONE! I've walked across that stage just like how I imagined it 6 years ago. The graduation class had approximately 50 people. Pretty small huh? The ceremony was short and SWEET! Although it was 6 long years, I can still recall my high school graduation like it was 3 days ago. I've had so many of my professors this semester tell me how happy they are that I was on the list to graduate. But it's probably their way of indirectly saying it's about time. HAHA! No but seriously it is about time. I see students enter their first year of college and graduate before me. But you know I don't waste my time contemplating about pointless crap. I'm just happy I'm done and finished what I started.
My parents came down this weekend to see me walk. I didn't expect it but I feel really accomplished that I've went to college and graduated. I can write a book about the adventures in 6 years of college. Of all the friends that's come and gone. Oh and how can we all forget the days during finals. The great amounts of caffeine intake for those late night cramming. All the organization that I've become part of. So I'll say this off the record, yes I will miss college. I mean how can we not miss the supposedly greatest part of your academic life? But trust me, I don't miss it enough to go back. Nevertheless, my college life experience is definitely priceless.
So what's next? Pursuing my passion at full force of course! But while my photography career is on the runway for takeoff, I'll be staying at my optometry job that I've been working at for the past 1.5 years. I'm so excited that I've finished a chapter of my life and start a new LOOONG one! =)
I'm going to go ahead and end this entry with some photos from this past weekend. Had one of the greatest parties of my life so far. I wanna thank everyone that came out! Here are some photos during graduation and a slide show of the party. Most of these photos were taken by my good friend Jessica. She isn't a pro but she handled it pretty well. ahem* =)
ps. off topic but how in the world do you people that add salt to pineapple eat it? It's crazy tangy! ahhah ok that's all.
