2009 Graduation

Sitting in the chair waiting to graduate I was thinking what am I going to do with the rest of my life? I thought what's next for me? Work? More school? While sitting there I knew I wasn't as proud of myself as I wanted to be and that I wanted to do something great. This morning I woke up and realized that maybe school would be best for me. I know I'm not ready to start working because I don't want a job I want a career! I want to achieve great things in life so that I can finally say I am proud of myself! I want to show my kids the great things in life. Education is the key to the door that opens up a whole new world to anything you set for yourself. I'm really not that great in school, but to be honest I have always just gotten by because I never cared to study. In the very few classes that I really studied and worked hard, I got an A! I'm not saying that now I want all straight A's but now I want to be the best I can be in every situation. 5 years later since my high school graduation, I finally accomplished something in my life and I don't want to end there. I want my Bachelors and Master's and a family all in one. I know it's not going to be easy but I also know that I have my families support and help if ever I need it. Thanks to my family for pushing me to get an education I'm one step higher in life. I'm not saying I'm smarter than everyone cause it took me 5 years so really I have forgotten most of what I learned, but I thank my family and greatly appreciate everything they have done for me. My achievements are not over yet so I'm going to end this here so I don't repeat myself in the years to come. :) Thanks to everyone! I love you!
