It is done...
I have officially earned my Masters!
A few months ago, after I was in Orlando for the Princess half, I checked my school calendar and realized I missed the cut-off for applying to walk and get hooded. I was pretty bummed until my advisor pointed out that I could go anywhere and that the off-campus ceremonies listing had been updated. A quick perusal turned up some gold! There was a Troy campus in Orlando! I quickly applied and was accepted into their commencement ceremony. Of course, I also got to work on finishing my thesis and moving on to my strategic management project.
Mid-May, I took my final test for my final class. I seriously think that the stars aligned for me -- out of the ten different portfolios I could be given to analyze, I was given Starbucks. Wow, was that the EASIEST test EVER!
Over the last few weeks, I have been able to sit back and relax! I enjoyed Mother's Day because there were no papers to write. I enjoyed our Memorial Day weekend because I didn't have any homework to rush home and complete after playing all day. I enjoyed our weekend at Great Wolf because I didn't have to bring my laptop with me.
And now I get to celebrate! In my home state! With my family around me. With my daughters in the crowd. And my parents. And my sister. And my in-laws. They all came to celebrate with me and help me fill that hole that Ronnie wasn't there. But he was.... I got a text from him that morning telling me not to trip on my gown. And a pretty sweet Facebook message.
So... Now what? Well, I don't know. Right now, we're still counting down days until my favorite partner in crime gets back. Then we can figure out what...
