hallo thar!

yesterday was the last. i handed in my last papers. i did end of year parties. last things i'll ever do as an undergrad. i picked up/purchased my cap and gown. i'm done. i graduate tomorrow.

i think when september rolls around i'll miss school. but right now i feel light. huge weight lifted. one more thing accomplished. despite my struggles with my health and transferring universities, i still completed my BA in 4 years. it's a huge relief on so many levels

i'll be sad to leave new york, as i can't afford to live here if i don't have a specific reason (like a really bangin job based here or school). so back to my mother's i go to save money to move out again, lol



i also feel lighter cuz i cut all my hair off again i'll get a picture soon. right now i just look like...bedhead. and not the hair product brand. the bed kind. with the mussed up ness.
but it's basically this
*update*





i'll be going to see *killjoy this weekend so i'm uber happy about that. then monday the 19th begins abstract and surreal photography week in project educate! so keep your eyes peeled.

other things going on include fibromyalgia awareness week run by *PotterShareCares, with a series of information and interviews about this condition.

it is also LYME disease awareness month--internationally! i think most of you know by now that the bulk of my health problems revolve around this disease. so please keep your eyes peeled on *ItDoesNotHaveMe for news articles with important information about things to look out for and how you can protect yourself.
Fast Fact Lyme Reference
Silent Epidemic - the original article i wrote last year with more in depth information.





and on a lighter and more tacky note...i have uh, some wish lists. you know, if you want to celebrate graduation with me
here on dA, of course
Think Geek because you know i do
urban outfitters

and of course

...and i use paypal at at thisisyourblindspot@gmail.com

okay i feel lame now.

alright, enough of that. i couldn't help myself



*EDIT*

done!
i ran into my senior work advisor at the reception and was ribbing him a bit, asking if he'd read my thesis yet. totally joking. he only got it a week ago, i didn't expect him to. but he said "yes! it was fabulous"

"does this mean i pass?"
"oh absolutely."

he also said that when the time comes that i decide to pursue graduate work, i can count on him for a recommendation

good stuff!
