So, I suppose I should update this when there is an absolute significant event. Yesterday, I became a graduate of 2009 from California State University: Sacramento. My major was in Social Science, which was I thought the most entertaining degree I wanted to get. My whole college career started a bit shakey. I think ever since I got rejected by Ohio State, I fell into a bit of depression, and made due with Sac City. That turned out to be the better path, I think. I was continuing my education with my friends which was more of a mental stability then if I went out of state to learn on my own. I also feel that I would have become a whole different person and had a dramatic change to the events that occurred over these past 5 years.
I want to give thanks to my friends, in fact. If it weren't for your guys, I think I would have gone nuts in pursuing some sort of degree. I might have even been discouraged to go to college in high school had I not followed John and Majid. Then being able to transfer and attend classes with Adam and Stacy somewhere on campus, it made my experience that much better.
Although I could have done without some drama and headaches that happened,it feels good to finally have a degree at hand (in 3-6 months anyways).
Now for the street in me. BOOYYAA MUTHA FUCKAS, I DONE DID GRADUMACATED. NOW WHAT BETCHES?!??! Y'ALL AINT GOT NUTHIN ON ME. WESTSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDE! |

Right now I wish I was a celebrity off seeing lots of places and doing exciting things everyday...ok yeah that's about it, cuz I could never handle everything else involved. Too shy for all those cameras. I would just like a vacation, and money to go places and shopping and do things with people and help people out...especially this time of year every year I feel like volunteering somewhere but I never know where or how. So volunteer places wind up kinda scary like I wouldn't feel safe there or I just don't know where to look for something else. I bought a bag of donation food at the grocery store today and gave a couple dollars to the man collecting for the homeless...something to ease my lack of effort. I just don't know where to volunteer...I'm too broke this year to keep giving material things. I think I just need a friend or someone to go volunteer with so it'll feel safer. I'll never forget one year they had that giving tree at the mall where it has little tags on it of toys the kids want, so I picked a girl who wanted a certain Disney princess doll set or something, and then without thinking twice the friends I was with picked tags too and all bought presents. Specifically I remember Julie taking 20 minutes trying to pick out the perfect outfit for the doll. At that moment I thought about how giving my friends are, and people are in general when donating is made so simple. Anyways I'm babbling cuz winter break is 6 days in and not much productive has happened. Guess I should enjoy the sitting around? Break isn't as cool when you start 2 weeks before most of your friends who are taking finals right now, and then go back before them. And then the rest of your friends have...career jobs...or baby. Adult life. I think the most exciting event at home this week is the mice. Mama mouse in the kitchen and her baby (maybe babies) are running around mine and my mom's rooms. My mom thinks she can catch the baby in a jar and crackers and have a new pet or something. Til then I woke up this morning to the baby crawling on the floor. It's been pouring rain and then there's no internet at home so yeah, this is exciting.
This year for Christmas I'd reallyyy like a Kindle, that amazon.com electronic book reader thing. That'd be cool. New release books from there are $9.99 or less. I'm just telling anyone that asks though for money. Quite broke this holiday season. I got my mom a Christian cd and my aunt Adam Lambert's cd, and then for a couple gatherings we're doing white elephants. Excited for those. :D But yeah, been unemployed for almost a year. I think John and I should get together and celebrate the mark. Not bad though, savings, grants, and unemployment has lasted a year. Hopefully more grants will come in when winter quarter starts. Can't complain much though, it's not like I'm throwing in job apps everyday.
Done rambling. Good night. |
