| Wow, it's been a while.
Since I last posted, Christmas came and went, I spent a wet New Year's on the Galveston coast with Cristen and Jonathan, came back to the great town of Waco, and started working a full time job. That's pretty much it.
Working full time is harder than you think, people. It is a totally different schedule than that of a college student to which I was so accustomed. Getting up at 6:30 means an earlier bedtime--like 10:30--and getting home at 5:00 means no afternoon naps. Now, I have worked part time since my freshman year, but I never had class from 8:00-12:00 and worked 1:00-5:00 every day of the week. It definatly is enough to wear me out. And then I come home and cook dinner because I don't have enough money to go out to eat anymore. :) I know, I'm so deprived. And I have a homemade turkey sandwich for lunch everyday. What a life. But I love my job, and I couldn't ask for anything better. I'm just going to have to get used to this new schedule.
I have become quite dull. I think it's the office job. I'll work on it and try again in the near future. | | |
| Merry Christmas!
It is 2 days before Christmas which means today is my Mimi's birthday! She's 89.
This is my first Christmas as a college graduate. Here are a few pictures of the graduation:
The graduating class:
After receiving the diploma (well, actually, it was just a piece of paper telling me that my diploma will come in the mail--quite dissappointing):
The family after the graduation ceremony:
Christopher and myself:
That's about it. The graduation was fun. My heel caught on the stair right before I stepped on stage. It was very stressful for about three fourths of a second. I pulled it out and made it across ok though. But I did forget to move my tassel. There are just so many things to think about.
I hope you have a very happy Christmas.
I will see my Maggie soon!!

| Commencement in 5 days. Finals complete. Time for the fun to begin! I still can't believe I'm graduating. I almost cried a minute ago while sending an e-mail to one of my professors. I'm an emotional mushball. | | |
| I have no more classes to go to of my college career as an undergraduate. My brain is tired. My body is tired. 45 minutes of sleep doesn't really prepare me for the day. I will never go to a class at Baylor as an undergraduate again. I feel like singing That Good Ole Baylor Line. I think I'll spare you. But I just might sing it to myself...

| I had a wonderful week of fun with family and friends. Now I'm back in Waco trying to finish my college career with a bang....or at least a couple of A's....maybe 4 or 5. I know the typical elipsis is only three periods, but I decided to use four to make the sentence a little more dramatic. :)
One paper is due Thursday over the church in the Revelation to John. It should be interesting. Chris is coming in on Friday to attend my last function as an active Chi Omega on Saturday night. We will dress in our best cowboy/cowgirl attire and two-step the night away. If you're lucky, I may post pictures. :) Then Monday I have one more paper due over a couple of passages of Hamlet. That will be my last full-length paper that I ever write at Baylor unless God brings me back here in the future for some reason...a Ph.D. perhaps? Good grief, I hope not. I'm rambling. Sometimes rambling is fun...like now.
Cristen's writing a research paper tonight. That means she'll probably post later. :)
This is Cristen making a splash in the water:
This is Chris and my mom...they love each other:
