It’s been forever since I’ve posted, so I figured I’d get
caught up to what has been going on lately!
My decorated graduation cap! :) |
As you probably know, this month I finished up with my
undergrad degree! It’s very exciting! I am thrilled to be done (it certainly
took me long enough!). I now have a Bachelor of Science (yay!)!!
I also graduated with honors, which is a pretty big deal! My
first couple of years in college I was very sick and my schooling definitely
suffered, but once I was diagnosed with my gluten intolerance and vitamin
deficiencies, I was finally able to engage in class and thrive for the first
time ever! Since then, I’ve loved school and worked my butt off to make up for
my less than stellar grades! It was such a wonderful and proud moment to find
out I’d graduate with honors after all the hard work I’ve put in!
It was also so nice because my sister came in from Texas and
Drew’s mom and stepdad came in from Augusta! We also had a family shindig the
next day with the extended family from all over. It’s always nice to see
people! There was also a lot of delicious vegan food—spinach dip, guacamole, beans,
rice, slaw, and cupcakes… All gluten free and perfectly fine (great!) for me to
eat (woo!).
The graduation ceremony was Friday morning. That day was
super busy (a story for another time, though, I think). Saturday we had the
family party. And Sunday we left for Florida!! I am going to talk about that
later, though. I
think it’s worth a post of its own!
Obviously, things have been pretty busy lately but I think
they’ll be slowing down for a teeny tiny little while, so I should be able to
post some more!
