- I graduated
- I was given my new friend Rockwell. Since this picture we have added fenders, a back rack and a basket. It is primed for Biking in Baton Rouge.
- I packed up my whole life.
- I got to hang out with my siblings and their families... especially my baby sister's newest addition named Zowie.... she's cute.
- Then I chopped off all of my hair, so I could travel to a place that was a million degrees with a billion percent humidity.
- After that I found out that I was officially accepted to the graduate program at LSU for this fall (I don't have a picture for this one as I didn't think to take one as I was crying with Meg and Papa Thorne in the kitchen.)
- I saw Drew and his Grams in Cedar City.
- The Giffords in Arizona.
- And the Hinksons in Fort Stockton
And now I have been here for a week, I was sick for a few days and have started going about the business of getting a job for the summer. I love the humidity, but probably because it is a stark contrast to the freezing air conditioning that is everywhere here.
Another moment of GREAT news was the chance to receive a Graduate Assistantship for schooling. I will be working for the Graduate program, in return they will waive my tuition and out of state fees while providing a monthly stipend.
It has been quite a roller coaster, but I have enjoyed the ride. I can't wait to see what the rest of the summer brings me. :)
