I had the opportunity to walk in the 2004 Class of Dixie State College tonight. Being that it is "just" my associates degree, I didn’t plan on walking at first; the graduation counselor had other things in mind apparently. He actually made me sign a slip saying that I would walk and being that I didn’t walk during my high-school commencement, I decided I had better this time around.
My parents were in town and it was nice having their support during the ceremony. We had dinner at Poncho & Lefty’s (somewhere we had never been before) and then went back to my parent’s hotel room for a little conversation. All in all, it’s been a pretty good day, but I’m glad when I say that Dixie State College is now behind me
Well, the day is finally here. I get to leave Dixie State College for good. Frankly, I’m glad for that. I started the day off "practicing" walking through the line; I figured that they had to hold that practice at 9:00 in the morning so that they would have the whole day to fix all of the problems they were going to have and from what I understand, there were a LOT.
My parents are headed this way as we speak. We’ll head back to Salt Lake City with them tomorrow so that I can go look into a job on Monday. Hopefully, it should be a very realaxed weekend.
Speaking of jobs, I’m really interested to see what this Ogden-based company is all about. I think that I would be a good asset to the company and I think that we could work well together. I do hope that things work out though.
The day has been slow at work and frankly, I’m going to go home. I’m still feeling a little sick and a bit worn out. Finals week always wears on me. Gotta head to the school at 5:00. Guess I should get home and get cleaned up.
One more final. The only problem is, there wasn’t really anything to study for; no…let me rephrase: we were told to just study “everything”. Thirty chapters of material to run over in 1 day is…uh…a little unreal. So, needless to say, I’m going to have to make an issue about that.
I gave my psych final a working today. 94%. That is surely enough for an "A".
Apparently my body has just decided that it wants to shed some pounds. As of this morning, I’m down to 199. I’m just four pounds away from my goal weight. Frankly, I’m a little amazed. I was 202 on the 16th of this month. I have still been working out and actually eating a bit better, but three pounds in two weeks? I have no choice but to be happy about that.
