Okay, so I don't really like posting things about myself because I feel like I'm just bragging, but I guess I better post about this one since I spent the last four years of my life doing it! On Thursday I "officially" graduated with my Bachelor's of Science degree in Accountancy with honors from ASU. (Go DeViLs!) It is surprisingly a bitter-sweet feeling. I DO enjoy having absolutely nothing to do on a Sunday night, but I know I am not going to like working 40 hours a week! I actually liked mixing it up with work and school. The ceremony itself was nice...the speakers were actually quite funny, but announcing all those "W.P. Carey School of Business" graduates took forever! I did take my cell phone with me, so at least I was semi-entertained with texting my dad the entire time. I have to tell about the two funniest texts I received from him...the first text was sent right after the speaker told us to applaud our parents for everything and his text read, "I don't want an applause, I want a gun!" Then my dad sent a text that told me to turn around so they could take a picture; I did and then asked him if they got it; he replied, "Yes, you look good, now go get a job!" He thinks he is so funny! (luv u dad) I was fortunate to have so many people come, including my great-grandma (she is 92!). And I am so thankful for all of you who came! We had a BBQ at our house afterwards and it was fun to just sit a visit. It was definitely hard work to finish in four years with no summer school, but it was all worth it! Now it's onto graduate school! I will be doing the Master's of Accountancy program at University of Phoenix Online since I get such a big discount through Ben! On another note...Happy Mother's Day to all of you mothers! (Especially mine:) I hope that one day I can be half the mom that she is! LOVE YOU MOM! <3
