I have made it. I am an official LU graduate. The ceremony was good. I think the sense of humor reflected the class and helped many people get through the ceremony. Today was a long day since I had to be at Belcher at 8 am. I am going to miss all my friends that I am leaveing behind at LU. They all know who they are. I will also miss all those friends who graduated with me. As my undergraduate years closed today, I am scared for what is going to happen during the rest of my life. But I do know one thing for sure - God will watch over me and keep me safe. As long as I keep following his direction in my life, I have nothing to be scared of. Tomorrow, I, along with my family, are going to start the long drive back to Cali.

Have a fun rest of the weekend.

Today we had graduation practice. I personally think it was a waste of time, but it was fun seeing everyone graduating. It was a great time to hang out and goof off with each other. This class is really awesome and I am also graduating with a lot of my friends, but also a lot of my friends will still be here and graduate in the years to come.

For lunch, the history profs took the graduates out to lunch. THis was an awesome time to get together and hang out without any worries of school or finals. We had fun thinking back to all our years here and the various history classes we had. (Also, talked about a lot of Dr. K quotes from his various classes.)

My parents arrived in town tonight. I went and saw them for an hour or so. I enjoyed seeing them again. This time next week, I will be back home in CALIFORNIA :) Yes J5 I am excited about returning to that state. Well, I am sort of excited to return to that state. California does grow on you after time. I knew it will for you. Yeah I know its not true for you, but I can wish :P

Well, I am gonna read some of a book mom brought. Catch you all later

A question that I was asked in response to my paper on annihilation "Would there be animals in Heaven?" I had never really thought about this before. Something in my paper made him ask this. I hope there will be animals in heaven. I love animals especially dogs. However, I do not think that animals that have already died will be in heaven because they do not have eternal salvation. I just thought I would share that question and read all your responses to that question. Oh, on that paper, I did really good. Dr. W. liked it and said that I did a good job analyzing the topic. This topic was a difficult one. I had problems understanding it, but Dr W said that it seems like I understand this doctrine. Anyways, I took that as a compliment and was a wonderful way to end the semester.

Wow, I am like done with college (except for 2 summer classes). This is hard to believe. It seems like yesterday I was looking at colleges and trying to figure out which one I would go to. If I go back to that day, would I make the same decision? I do not know if I would. This school seemed to have changed since the fall of 2001 and I definately do not like that change. However, if I went elsewhere, I would not have the friends I have now. On that basis, I think I would make the same decision.

I have no idea what I am going to do after graduation. I do not like this. I am the type of person who has to have everything planned out. I hate not knowing what I am going to do and it is driving me crazy.

I think it finally hit me that I am leaving Sunday, and I will not be back in August. As much as I want to leave and get on with my life. But also at the same time I do not want to leave. I have friends here that I will miss tremendously. I spent the last three years of my life here in Texas, and I have made it my home. I think moving back home to cali and then wherever God leads me afterwards is gonna be on of my hardest moves.

I am going to go to bed. I think this should keep you not bored J5.

A friend of mine decided to list what he learned from year to year to present. However, I do not remember that far back like he does. However since graduation is about 5 days away. I can share what I learned in college (did I learn anything?).

I work a lot better under a lot of stress. I also get very restless and bored when I am not doing something. My brain has to be doing something if it does not do something then it gets into trouble.

Boys are not made out to be all that people say. They can be annoying some of the time. Well, majority of the time they are.

Sometimes, one has to be able to give in order for things to get done especially when I am working.

Life is funny. The person I am a guardian angel for and I have not had an easy semester. We have been fighting and then friends (back and forth between the two).

When God takes away a friend, he will be there for you even if you are made at Him. He will always take car of me.

The classes I learned the most in, I worked the hardest in.

I will continue this later.
