even though i've been done with my thesis, it seems that life has not slowed down for me yet. i still haven't fixed my resume so i can start applying for jobs. i'm just shaking my head reading that.

i graduate tonight with a party tomorrow night. it's crazy to think about. i am graduating with a master's degree in sociology.

i've been having a really nice time with my sister visiting. i've missed her.

i just came back from a crazy adventure of traveling to & from atlanta for my friend raymond's graduation. we used to play dress-up & video games together.

i just feel...tired. & i can't tell you how much miguel is feeling more & more like home to me.

i'm finished




 i completed my thesis! it is finished. i am so relieved. it turned out to be 95 pages & over 24,000 words. my thesis was about building relationships online that turn into a community. in a year it will be bound complete with a green cover & placed along side all of the other theses in the lower level of the university library. i'm so happy it is finished. it feels so strange too! like i never have to go to school again if i want. (may get a phd sometime, but not now)

all i have to do now is find a job. which is a scary thought. i don't want to be discouraged.

but first i have to fix up my resume. anyone know of a good website for that?

i thought i would have more time since my thesis was turned in, but it is completely opposite! there were so many things i kept putting off because i was working on my thesis & now i have to work on all of the things i kept putting off. oh well.

i hope to be blogging more often now. i'm off to pennsylvania tomorrow & then a road trip to georgia for a graduation. busy life i lead.
