The Last Days of School

I have one week of school left. Forever. At least for now. I have been in school for 20 years. Yes thats right. I started school at 3 years old at Challenger. That is when my mom started working there. Now I work there! And I am finally graduating college. I have been in college for five and a half years. People keep asking me if I am excited and I don't really know how I feel. I am glad that I don't have to do anymore tests, essays, APA style research papers, no more turnitin.com, no more teacher evaluations, etc. It still does not feel real. Maybe when I put on a black gown and cap, I will feel like this is real. I am really going to miss going to school. I like the going part but not the doing. I love meeting new people in my classes. I really do like learning about children and stuff. I will really miss how easy it was to meet people who are not Christians. I have met an awesome friend in the last few years at SJSU. When I first met her, I knew she had no belief in God at all, but the other day she told me that after last summer she started to think that there was a God. I was so excited to hear that. She is such a funny person. She always made me laugh with her random stories. This morning in class this guy kept talking about Chuck Norris. It was funny. This morning was funny too. I think my alarm went off... well, I think that I ignored it because next thing I knew it, it was 8:13. I usually leave my house at 8:15. I still made it on time. Phew! Winter makes me have really bad personal hygiene. Its too freakin cold in the morning to get into the shower. The other day I had to pour hot water on my windows to defrost them. Its officially winter! I am also getting ready to go to Iowa to meet my fiance's parents. I am really excited to meet them and see how they are. I'm sure its going to be a blast. Then, I am going to Disneyland for New Years. I love Disneyland. And I have always wanted to go with a "significant other". All my dreams are coming true. lol. ANYWAY, I guess soon I will know how it feels to be a college graduate. I hope it doesn't hurt.
