Graduation

Guess what.

We GRADUATED!

It's kind of a miracle. School is done and behind us. And guess what? Grades weren't half bad either. Much better than I had expected.

Graduation was awesome. I performed piano (see previous post) and Paul and I got to walk together with our brother-in-law. Because I was on the stand, we got to walk at the beginning of the students.

(Thanks to my sister, Rachel, for the great pictures!)

 Paul and Jeff are the first students walking and I'm up on the stand.

Paul and Jeff waiting for everyone to take their seats. (It took forever.)

 Playing on the big screen!

Serious face.

 Walking..

 Walking...

 Hand shaking..

 Cute parents.

Such a fabulous day :)

I will definitely miss the advisement center. 

We love the Tanner Building/Marriott School of Management!

You will be missed.

Homework and finals? Not so much.

More posts about our move to Texas to come!

Accomplishments.

Just a few happenings this week. . .

I dyed my hair blonde.

I finished another thing of chap-stick .

I pride myself on my ability to finish almost every chap-stick I open .

I was give the award as Best Marketing Communication Marketer of the year.

Made me happy :)

I love marketing.

Three finals down, one to go.

Luckily, they are already going better than expected.

"Plug Me In and Turn Me On."

That is what our new XBox is saying.

Too bad we aren't opening it until Texas.

That means school and the move have to be done first.

Bummer.

So I know I've always done things really fast. I first realized that when my softball coach in like 3rd grade told me that someday I was going to be the fastest woman in the world. Now obviously that didn't happen.

But I was always a fast runner.

When I stopped sports for piano I always played way too fast.

I try to get through everything as fast as I can.

Homework, studying, eating, sleeping, school, etc.

All fast. 

I kind of got hit in the face with this when I got feedback from all of my classmates about my presentations that last couple of weeks. For their suggestions on improvement, almost every person put that I should slow down.

And they all put that it was because they thought I was nervous.

I wasn't nervous.

I just get excited and naturally talk very fast.

I think I should probably slow down. Moving so fast makes me very impatient. That's why I have a hard time watching movies and sitting through lectures. And reading. And cooking. And it is a big contributor to the factor that I cannot do crafts in any form. And why I want to get through school. 

Fast.

I should probably stop and smell the roses. I just move too fast to see them!

What's wrong with the Y?

I played the piano on Saturday for the first time in a while. And I actually played. For real. And for a few hours. I stopped taking lessons because I got tendinitis and, unfortunately, it seems that I still have some of the effects. But it was fun to play and I don't sound too horrible.

On Saturday while Paul was playing capture the flag at the "Ernst & Younger Games," I was at the spring game for football. It's basically a scrimmage with the BYU Football team. It was pretty boring. But take a look at the field...

Do you notice anything odd?

Well, the Y is backwards. 

I bet someone feels really silly about that.

Kentucky vs. Louisville in the Final Four! Pretty cool. Paul is SO excited.

This week was pretty rough with school. We are coming down the home stretch with tests and assignments, and everything is all piling up on itself. I only have 7 days left of class! It's going to be a busy few weeks though. We have to start packing and studying for finals and getting everything ready for Texas.

I won $100 this morning doing a mock sales presentation to Target. I was Durham Brands and they have this sweet new bag coming out. They're called Kaboo Bags and have a tech pouch for your iPad, Nook, etc. I think I want to buy one.

We are probably buying an XBox . . and we don't even have a TV. Go figure.
