God is so good.
And I cannot repeat that enough.
Today I took my last college final EVER! Woke up around 7:30, studied a little, had my bacon and coffee and then went out to dominate my exam. Well, I didn’t quite dominate it, but I know I did good enough. Good enough to pass the class. Good enough to graduate.
And as I think about the many exams I’ve taken over the years and the times I’ve despaired over a seemingly unbeatable class and the times I’ve spent walking around outside at four in the morning praying that I would pass and the times that I’ve stayed up all night trying to finish a project…well, all I can say is…God gave me the strength. And I am grateful. And by His help, I have conquered.
But besides just the academic side of my college career…I think with fondness of all the amazing friends I’ve made. And I cannot…I can’t say enough how much I’ve been encouraged and strengthened and loved by my friends…you all know who you are. I am exceedingly grateful.
After my exam today, a bunch of us(me, Deanna, Shari, Amy, Katheryn, Dream) took some graduation pictures together around campus and we just soaked in the last few moments we have together!! And this evening was the ISE banquet – Cameron sponsored it – in which I got a chance to see and talk to some of my fellow students I’ve sweat and bled with these past few years. And I realized that the time of the college student is over. The time of the full-time worker is about to begin.
But besides all that sentimental stuff(sorry, I’m sure you all didn’t want to hear all of that!!) the banquet was quite good with yummy food and good entertainment(an improve group)…and Deanna came with me, so it was sweeeet hanging out with her for the evening(we always have such good times!!).
And tomorrow? Eh, nothing much happens tomorrow. I just graduate. You know.
And now, time to hang with Rob for a bit. And by hang, I mean we’re going to play some Battle for Middle Earth together…yeeeeah!
Sleep? Nah. You all can do that. If I haven’t already put you to sleep yet!! G’night!!
