better late than never

Finally sitting down to blog once again.
I quickly get in and out of the habit of blogging, thus explaining my sporadic posts.
This post will be dedicated to flinging my green and gold afar.
If you are not familiar with this term, do not fear. It just means you are not a Baylor graduate. 

That good old Baylor line! That good old Baylor line! We'll march forever down the years, as long as stars shall shine. We'll fling our green and gold afar to light the ways of time, and guide us as we onward go; that good old Baylor line. 
I did something in December of 2009...
I GRADUATED FROM COLLEGE!

Sometimes I feel silly about being so excited about it (still).
Then I remember all the sacrifices people, namely my parents, made for me to go to the college of my dreams.

I think of all the tests I took, projects I finished, papers I wrote, the capstone I slaved over and defended. 
I remember the fact that I am one of only 1% of the entire world who was fortunate enough to receive a college education... 
ONLY 1% of the world's population has a college education! Really?! That is incredible. 
Then I don't feel so silly for being excited (still) and so grateful for this opportunity.
If you have a college education, Praise and thank God for it. 

I don't know where I'll be flinging my green and gold quite yet,
but I'm excited at the thought of taking all I learned at my great university wherever I go.
