Nothing helps to crush your hopes during a job search (which is long, hard, & frustrating) than seeing in bold red at the top of a job information page: "you do not qualify for this position" before you even apply for the job. Lame...
Today at church in Anson, all of my senior students in my youth group were honored by the church & their parents. I was even included in this for graduating college. It was a good service & it was neat for Momma Whiting to get to experience my church for the first time.
Well I did it. After 5 years, several major changes, countless memories & lots of fun, I finally graduated from college. I had such a great time at McMurry & met so many great people who have shaped me & helped me grow as a person. I will never forget what I learned here & will definitely miss the campus, its people, & all the great times I had there.
Tonight marked the start of the graduation festivities at McMurry. It was the baccalaureate service at Aldersgate UMC. It was a beautiful service where Timmy P preached & all the graduates were honored & blessed for our journey into "adulthood."
Met up with this guy on my way back to the apartment after listing this morning. He was leaned over, drinking out of the swimming pool. Once he knew I was there, he just stared at me as I walked by. Creeper cat...
Today was a pretty historic day. It was the day that I took my last test as an undergrad & the last time I sold my books back to the bookstore. I took my religious epistemology final for Dr. Kinlaw & sold my books back to a store called Books 2U, across from HSU, because they give you a lot more money than the McM bookstore does. This here is my sweet "I'm thug, rolling in the dough" shot with my $41 buyback on my books. You know you're jealous of my swag!
This has been my favorite study spot at McMurry for 5 years & I'm actually kind of going to miss studying there, creeping on people as they walk to class or watching the won't blow the trees, etc.
Liz & I went on a very nice date that ended at our favorite place: the lake by the zoo feeding the ducks. It's so much fun & reminds us both of when we were first starting to fall in love.
At the Region 14 Service Center there are a lot of different conference rooms & each one is named after a county in the region. We were there today to attend a Twogether in Texas relationship & marriage seminar & we spent most of the day in the "Jones Room" How perfect is that? We also got the $60 fee for the licence waived because we attended this event so out marriage license will be super cheap, hooray!
