Making it Through the Rain

Well, I did it! I managed to complete my AA degree with a 3.8 GPA. Yes folks, count that as a graduation with HIGH HONORS! High honors was not what I initially set out to procure, but considering the final quarter I had, I'll take what I can get! So many heartfelt thanks and hugs are going out today to those who shared a shoulder or an ear when I needed one. Now? ON TO THE NEXT GREAT ADVENTURE. What shall it be? A trip to France or perhaps an African safari? Maybe a week in New York shopping at Barney's. Um, no. Instead I am choosing to celebrate by... more schooling. I will now be working to achieve my BA at a fabulous private school in our great metropolis.

I started last week at my new ritzy school and it proved to be an interesting one. I cannot get over how smart (and I might mention, well dressed) the students are here! I feel like the nerdy kid with the wrong shoes all over again. I think I need to do some shopping. Oh, and maybe brush up on my latin. Ha!

It has been a very surreal experience so far. But I keep reminding myself, I am here for one purpose - to figure out a way to make words into money baby!!! One day at a time.

I'll make sure and keep you posted. That is, if I don't get beat up by the Ralph Lauren biker crew for wearing espadrilles before Labor Day.

Take care all, and God Bless!!!
