The Start of a Journey

I graduated yesterday and had a big ole celebration with family and friends. I felt incredibly supported because a great mix of people I care about came to bid me good luck as I start a new chapter. Sitting through the marathon-long graduation, I had fun texting other graduates, waving at my parents, and getting lost (for the last time) in a crowd of many at Bradley University. I was able to think back to the last month of honors celebrations, senior celebrations, and professor-parent events. While I was hesitant to attend all of the little events, it was fun nonetheless. After 4 years of hard work, stressful classes, and great times, I am grateful for such a great university and even more excited about moving forward.

This week, I am hanging out with family and friends, working with Joe and at Byerly, and packing for the wedding in FL and then Costa Rica. Megan and I cannot volunteer with Tirimbina so now the entire trip is unplanned! Who would have guessed that organized and over-planned me would be comfortable showing up in a foreign and just seeing how things went. My life is so rick and I am overwhelmed with the changes I have experience. I have no idea where I will be or who I will become August 2011! Here we go!
