The End...

The End...

Thank you for watching.

Remember if I can do it, you can too!

That, that, that, that's all folks...

Dear Lord...

YOU SAVED ME! 

Last assignment, last week, last time...Goodbye!

I just submitted my last assignment for the University of Phoenix and I couldn't be happier. Although this school has given me so much, in turn, it has taken so much as well. I happy to be officially done and I'm ready to move on! Good Riddance! See ya UOP! I will post again once I receive my diploma and kiss this blog goodbye! 

I'm outta here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Take this job and shove it,

I ain't working here no more!!!

The last day here at work and it's time to move on to bigger and better things with people who know how to manage and lead...That person being me! I'm working for myself!

SEE YA BITCHES!!!!

...And then there were two!

My last two classes for my degree! Maybe my last two classes with UOP! Did I just rhyme? My very last post will be of me holding my degree and I will close My College Journey blog.

Wow, just wow!

Does the madness ever end? I was doing my part and the system wants more. Why? I am amazed at how greed fuels most people. Greed and spite are sinful and I find it interesting how people who proclaim to have faith find themselves compelled by greed and spite. The United States justice system is so flawed and is only cultivated by the ignorant. I wish I could obtain my  law degree and pass the bar so I could help guide imparitiality into a system that is supposed to be fair. I guess it's asking too much when the system, regularly, sends innocent people to their death because of the facade of impartiality. What should I expect from a system that is going to ensure a ten year old little girl who needs a double lung transplant, certain death? What should I expect from a system that sends people to die for causes only beauracrats understand? What should I expect from a system that allows my neigbor to collect Section 8 housing with an Audi parked in her driveway and 3 unreported people who live in her household? What should I expect from a system that is supposed to help the uninsured become insured only to have the hardworking people who pay for their insurance out of pocket, rates increase? What should I expect?

I DID IT!!!!!!!!!

After 4 long years of blood, sweat, and tears, I did it! It was surreal and so much in fact that I was in a daze! I have been having dreams since I began this journey of what that day would be like and none of it happened. I had dreams of listening to a song as I walked in like a fighter does and dancing on stage after my name was called out but I didn't do any of that! I was in such shock that the day was finally here I just acted as if the whole thing was just another day. Oh well, I had fun and my graduation party with my family was fun. I DID IT! I still have two classes left but they are some very elective classes and I'll get through them without thinking. When I get my degree I will end this blog and bid farewell. I am not done with school but I'll begin putting the pieces of this blog together to help with my book. I will add some video to this as well.

Night before...

It all boils down to this! Wow, I never thought I would get here. In 10 short hours I will be at graduation and it doesn't seem real. I began this blog in 2009 from my first class. I will end it with my very last class as well. I have my gown all pressed and clothes ironed. Cameras are charging and I will be tired for tomorrow but I will be there ready to go. Class of 2013 here I come!

T minus 4 days!

4 more days until I graduate!!! Well unofficially at least. I can't believe I am here! I have been so busy with a new baby that I forgot to post! Alejandro Michael was born on April 23rd. He was 8lbs 10oz. He is healthy and cries a lot! I got an early graduation present!

I believe!

My cap and gown came in and although it is extremely wrinkled, I had to post the picture. Almost there, just a few more weeks to go!

No News is good News

...no news as of yet but the week is still young. At least I started my last class ever with UOP and it's almost over. The last four years have been something else. It all ends on May 13th! I have to take a CLEP test and as long as I pass that by half I am a golden goose sitting on a goldern egg in my golden hole! Hopefully all turns out ok and I'm not going to worry about it. I saw a quote that said, worries erase Gods promises. So there is no need to worry.

Yet again...

I have found a way to fumble up yet again! Not only may I get fired but I may not even finish school! I was ONE f'n class away and I did it again! Look in the dictionary for the word STUPID and you should find my picture and biography. Well it's back to the drawing board and time to figure out my next move. Where ever the wind takes me I hope I don't F that up too.

Almost F'n there!

I'm almost f'n there. I registered for graduation and I only need to make it for another month and I'm done! I have more classes but if I can make it till April 9th I'll be in the money! I can't wait to be done even though I'm going on to my Masters. Blah!

Think Positive

I am scheduled to graduate in May but there is a possibility that it won't happen. All the work I have put into school and my graduation has been prolonged because of my job. If it doesn't happen all hell will break loose.

Inspiring Future Community Leaders Talk

In due time...

In due time all things will happen. I had the best meeting of my life on Monday January 7, 2013! I met with a community coordinator from the Jacob Center and was asked if I would be a speaker for a group of kids from at-risk communities. I will help them become change agents to effect lasting changes within themselves and their communities. I was also asked to be a part of some great community outreach programs that will help educate families of their legal rights and various other issues involving education among others.
I am elated and cannot wait to begin this journey! I am a change agent and my mission is to help people, help others. Doing for self it great; doing for others is even better!

The Possibilties

Happy New Year!
2013 is going to be a great year and it already starting off with a lot of promise. I am making it my goal this to get involved with non-profit organizations to learn the business and work on starting my own this year.
So in order to begin this journey I figured I would volunteer and help the community and learn the business. I began contacting people through email to find an opportunity and nothing happened for about a month. Right after New Year I inquired again and the individual at the Jacob Center wanted to know more about me and stated that they are looking for speakers for a teen retreat they are planning and I could possibly be considered.
For some that is not a big deal but that is what my dream is and the possibilities are coming to light. This year will be the year that dreams come true!
