I am offically a University of Michigan graduate. I have a degree in Electrical Engineering. And I will forever be a Michigan Wolverine.
Graduation was amazing. I honestly didn't expect it to be so exciting. In February when it was announced that President Obama was going to be delivering the commencement address I was extatic. I mean the PRESIDENT is going to be praising me for becoming a graduate of one of the most prestegious universities in the United States. I believe this was the point in my college career when I realized how privledged I was to be going to Michigan and graduating in 2010.
Seeing Obama walk onto the stage was a rush. It was just amazing to see him in real life. I have never seen a president and they always just seem like some figment of TV land. But he was there, 8 rows in front of me, a REAL person. It just solidified in my mind that he's a person and is real and is trying his very hardest to make this country a better place for you and I to reside. It made life seem more meaningful and it inspired me to do something. Big or small.
Engineering graduation was awesome too. I got to spend some times with my gEECS girls and say goodbye. We are all going our seperate ways (most of us home in search of SOMETHING?). They were always my rock in EECS. We had each other's back and we made up a majority of the 4 percent women in the EECS population. I will definetly miss them! :)
Now life changes. Not sure what to make of it. I'm feeling young again being back in my parents house. I'm hoping to get a place with Tony soon. I'm really worried that nothing is ever going to go the way I'm planning however. I just don't want to get my hopes up and then never get it and feel like shit because I was so excited for something to happen. (story of my life)
Grad School, here I come. :)
