New News!

Soooo, it's been a little bit since I wrote last, and there's been a few changes in my life... I finished

my student teaching in mid-April and then GRADUATED!!!! I got to go to the smaller, quainter Kinesiology graduation with all my family(thanks for coming!!) on Friday morning. Then, I got up SUPER early on Saturday morning to drive to the Big House through rain and thunder storms that thankfully stopped as soon as we went to wait in the extremely long security lines (we had to walk through metal detectors and couldn't bring anything in a bag or drinks or umbrellas), and why did we have such strict security for an average college graduation, you may ask?! Well cuz UofM can't stand being average! We had to go out and steal the President of the US for a day! The special occasion packed the available space in the Big House (couldn't seat people behind him now could we?), getting somewhere above 80,000 people, most there just to see the big event. While Obama's a fine speech giver, there were only a few points I felt were actually directed toward us graduates rather than possible voters and him wanting to make sure we continue to support him and understand why we shouldn't hate him. Oh, and then we had our great governor who did a nice kiss up speech to our President that had NOTHING to do with graduating! Overall, pretty disappointing when I was looking forward to a real good inspiring speech shoving us into the world from our esteemed speakers. Fortunately, there was an awesome student speaker who saved the day. He was funny and relevant, saving the day!

Now, I'm doing some more research with an old professor, working for my dad's business, babysitting my beautiful niece, and subbing! Busy, busy bee I am!
