Above: my family (mother, father, little brother) and me at graduation on Saturday (May 4, 2019)
Hello everyone!
Now that my final semester has come to a close I am starting to develop a game plan for how I want to proceed. I do plan on being a writing tutor but I am trying to find the best way to advertise my services, so far I have advertised in online yard-sales on Facebook and have not been as successfully as I initially hoped.
Mostly I am trying to soak in what has transpired this weekend. I do not feel like I am graduated. I feel like it is the beginning of another Summer just like the ones before. I’m not sure when it will sink in that I am completely through with school, most probably next semester when I do not go back.
Over the last ten semesters (5 years) of college I have grown significantly in all ways. I am, obviously, not the same person I was when I started. Though my dreams and general ambitions are the same I am now armed with the tools to achieve them.
I have met so many amazing people and been taught by excellent professors. I do not think I could ever express how grateful I am to those who taught me and those who shared this experience with me.
My mind feels like it is caught in a haze as I am attempting to process. I am a little frustrated with this, but it has only been a day and my final grade isn’t even posted yet for a literature course I took. I definitely succeeded, but it is not officially in yet.
Either way, I am experiencing an immensely confusing feeling of wanting to hang on as long as possible and wanting to immediately dive in to something else. I am not sure what exactly the future holds, but I am beyond excited.
Please stay tuned as I start to make posts much much more often to try and grow this little space of mine on the web. Reach out to me with any advice you may carry. And share share share with others you know.
Thank you for reading, everyone, have a wonderful day.
May the 4th be with me!
