feeling the love

To say that God is good would be the understatement of the year.

Today, I graduated. I love saying that. Today, I GRADUATED. It's been a long time coming, but I did it, but not without help. This past year God has showered me with unfailing love, faithfulness, wonderful friends, incredible leaders, unexpected blessings and plans for a bright future. Without Him, I would be nowhere, and certainly wouldn't have the support I have today.

I am overwhelmed by the amount of love received today, and I wanted to say THANK YOU. Never have I ever felt so blessed. I would not be where I am if it weren't for all of you. SO excited to see what God has in store for next year and absolutely ecstatic for all of the adventures I have yet to have! Just don't know how it could get any better than this!! :D

to stand out, or fit in

The search is on... for a graduation dress! And because I am graduating through MTHEA... let's just say the rules are a little strict. I need a black dress, near the knee, not too revealing, cooky, weird or anything individualistic basically. ;) Naturally, my dress will be covered by my gown, so I'm not too worried. I would like to stand out at graduation though. Problem is, they don't want anybody to. MTHEA's slogan for graduation seems to be "Honor and Excellence", (or at least the lady mentioned it several thousand times at the information meeting.) And they have explicitly asked that no funny business go on during graduation. I however, have different plans. I will distinguish myself at graduation if it's the last thing I do.

If they hadn't mentioned not wearing glittery heels, I'd be all over that...
