A Day in the Life of a Master(s) of Education

I almost forgot I had a blogger page....its been so long since I've written a post. This post will not be a long one...some time next week I'll sit down and write a blog that has 6 months worth of info...right now I'm just making sure I still know how to do this....apparently I do...so until next post smooches laters

So now that I have something besides going back home to do after graduation, I'm actually excited about it. I've got everything I need...cap,gown, tassel, diploma (well not yet) but you get the picture. My mom has gone UBER insane about graduation, she ordered everything, from the yearbook to photos to announcements...I mean everything. I think its a bit cute but a bit overwhelming too. Ah well I'm just going with the flow and counting the days. It will be a very hectic time for me..two days after graduation I'll be heading to Australia for a mini vacay/study aboard. It will be a month to remember to say the least. Following Australia, I'm heading to Orlando to work for the Mouse...You know Mickey himself. i must say I'm looking forward to it, but my poor mother is in borderline panic attack mode. It's not bad enough that I went away to college, then I had to go to Italy for 3 weeks, now Australia for a month....Orlando maybe the straw that broke the camel...

So Moe,what are you doing for spring break??? Well blogger world, I am doing nothing but working. I am spending the only extended break that I get this semester doing the same thing I always do, WORK WORK WORK. It is so depressing,this was supposed to be my first and last great spring break, I mean I have never been the one to go on cruises with my friends, or down to a beach or anything like that. I was intending to head to Acapulco and spend a week on the beach with friends drinking, tanning(lol), and generally doing nothing with my life...but then financial troubles showed up and I ran out of money. On the up side I am going to Australia later on this year, so that can count as a spring break....so you would think but this trip is for a study aboard and therefore there will be a professor along for the ride, sure he is a cool guy but that doesn't help the case much, he is still a sign of authority. Ah well at least I'll have spending money for Australia.....until next post s...

So I looked my bank account today just for fun, balance $3.23. What a depressing number. I cant even get a full meal at Mickey Dees.. I need to work but I can't b/c I have the flu. This of course depresses me even more. It sucks to struggle so much. I would say that it will get better once I graduate but with the job market as it is right now I'm going to be broke for quite some time. You know what I don't want to think or write about this any more. Laters

Hello out there blogger world, hope all is well and such with you and yours. The other day I was surfing the wonder that is the Internet when a friend of mine said that I should check out this website, juicycampus.com. So for lack of better judgement I did. Boy was that not a good idea. First for those of you who are not familiar with this website, I'll give you a little summary. It is an anonymous website where anyone, but most likely students of the University/College can post comments feelings, blogs, etc about anything involved in the campus. So back to what I saw on the VT page, SLANDER. So many people were on this website saying god awful things about persons on this campus. Honestly I was truly ashamed as a student and a human being. I couldn't understand how people could be so mean and angry on a VERY public media outlet such as the Internet. I mean I know that once you put something on the Internet it is there for anyone to see but still it was a bit extreme for my tas...

SO 2009 is my year of possibilites....I know that it means I'm putting a lot of pressure on this one year, but I have too. This is the year that I can say that my president is black, this is the year that I graduate from college, this is the year I begin what will be my adult life. All of this in one year...and it is scaring the living daylights out of me. I'm so not ready to accept all that is coming my way, the anticipation has gone now the dread sets in. I dread paying bills, I dread looking for a job and an apartment, I dread having to make decisions that set the tone for what is my life. I try not to compare myself to others because I believe that it can lead to either one of two things...self righteousness or self doubt, neither of which I want a yearly subscription to. However right now I can not help but to look at my peers and others around me and to consider where I stand amongst them. Right now I am not happy with the results in most catagories in my life including l...
