Notes from a 21-year-old

So, I've finally made my decision: LSU. For those of you who wanted me to go up north or stay in New Orleans, all I have to say is: thanks for your support, but I have to make my choices for myself. This was a really difficult decision, and I had to take into account all of the good advice as well as closely examine my own priorities. I think LSU will be awesome for me.

I graduated Saturday; that's the big news. It feels weird to think of myself as a college graduate, but that's what I am now. A big girl! And I'll be 22 tomorrow.

My final exams were pretty rough, mostly because of other problems occuring at the same time and a little bit of last minute sickness. But I managed to feel better for graduation, and I moved out of the dorms on Sunday without any problems.

I really enjoyed my years at Loyola, although I think all my part time jobs really got in the way of my making the best of it sometimes. Such is life.

Here's a pic of the big day. Hope all is well for everyone.
