turning a new page

After finishing college yesterday I took most of today just to relax and let it all sink in. I needed a break since I definitely overworked myself a bit the last few months (perhaps that's an understatement).

Anyways, the news of today was that I got an email from DANCER magazine asking for article contributions for their March issue. I guess they came across my website and asked if I'd be interested, so I pitched some ideas and now have an article due for them next week. Yay! More writing opportunities are good good good.

Speaking of my website, perhaps the most significant part of graduating yesterday was updating all of my bio and everything to say that I have my BA in Communications rather than simply "pursuing" it. Haha! It's cool when it's finally in writing.

Also of interest on my website is that I added a page to include some of the digital pictures I've taken. I've always loved taking pictures and though I would indeed like to learn more of the technical parts of photography in the future, it's mostly just a hobby for now. But I thought it might be nice to display a few of my favorites, so go check 'em out here.

I have a busy weekend ahead with various graduation celebration activities...and the blogger meetup at NYCB!

Goodbye College!

It is over.

I just finished my last course as an undergrad at Marymount Manhattan College!

I AM A COLLEGE GRADUATE.

And it didn't really sink in yet...


So before we end and then begin
We'll make a toast to how it's been
A few more hours to be complete,
A few more nights on satin sheets,
A few more times that I can say …
I've loved these days.
-Billy Joel

Who's that Nine(teen?) Year Old Graduating College?

Exactly 4 months from today I will be a college graduate! Time flies when you're...working hard.

Got the proofs back today from the graduation pictures they took at school last week...not only am I 3 years younger than the other seniors, but it really doesn't help that I look like I'm young enough to be graduating from MIDDLE SCHOOL or high school! Haha.
