This Is It! - Happy Graduation To Me

After all the classes, meetings and activities, this is the day I have been working toward. I will receive my Masters Degree Certificate in Integrated Media and Social Networks.

No hood for this girl, since I did not earn the full Masters and after looking at the full degree, I am fine with what I have. I would have loved to work an Art Class or two into my life, but that is not to be, due to lack of finances, but ultimately, I am just fine with what I have learned. I would have had to take another 19 credit hours, which is another year of study. I just can't do that again.

I spent some time this week visiting and thanking each teacher I had. As I mentioned yesterday, I did do the Torchlight Ceremony last night and it was a moving ceremony. Just before the Ceremony, I got to see one more sunset, with my Husband and that made me happy, too.

So today, I walk across that stage. I thought I would be doing it all alone, but thanks to the bookstore, I heard that Andrew and Kyle will be walking with me. So out of our class of 8, we will walk as 3. I am happy to have company, as we do this together and shake the hands of the people who guided us to this day. In case you care, my final grade was an A and so I did get a 3.5 GPA. I refused to leave here with less than I had last time. :-)

There will probably be no photos, until I return home on Tuesday night. We will be training it home (via AMTRAK), later on today.

Goodbye Oz, this is finally it!

    Oh, they are running Jersey Shore commercials here in New York and they mention Barnegat Lighthouse all the time. :-)

  3. Sorry we missed your call, but we spent the day at a friend of Geoff's for a book signing party that Geoff provided the music for. I am so proud of Angel :-)
