I can't believe it's happened. On Friday May 10th, 2013 at 9:00am I graduated from the most amazing university and became a former student of Texas A&M University. After four amazing years of incredible opportunities and experiences I graduated.
My college experience was amazing. There were so many ups and downs. I've grown so much stronger through hard times I've experienced, broken hearts, and other disappointments. But I've also had the chance to really blossom and discover my full potential. So much has changed since I was a freshman. For starters I was an Allied Health nurse wanting to become a Nurse. I took some really challenging classes my first year. I learned to push myself and realized that I can do anything I set my mind to. In the process, I changed my major and decided to follow a different career path. I've always known that I wanted to help people (specifically in a hospital/clinical setting). So I switched from Nursing to Social Work, and changed my major to Sociology. I fell in love with this subject!! I also decided to get a minor in Psychology where I took some of the most fascinating classes ever!
I also made some AMAZING friendships along the way and I am so incredibly thankful for God putting these people in my life. Its already really hard being separated from my close friends, but I know that we'll always keep in touch and that they'll always have a special place in my heart.
I became so emotional the days leading up to graduation. I was experiencing anxiety, excitement, and uncertainty (among many other emotions!). But the day finally came where I would walk the stage and get my Bachelor's degree. I'm so thankful (and proud!) that I was able to graduate with honors - Cum Laude. That made it graduation so much more meaningful. The last four years were a lot of work and took a lot of dedication. But it was all worth it.
I am so incredibly thankful to have been given the opportunity to attend such an amazing university and to have learned so much, both academia and things about life and myself. Its been a wonderful ride and I'm excited to see where life takes me now.
Here are some pictures from the day :)
