Bon Voyage!

So today marks the last day I'll be home in awhile. I'm all packed and ready, just waiting is keeping tomorrow from coming. First off to grandparents up north for about a week and then I start my travels overseas starting in Paris. Yay! This year has been a good for me, and I am sure the bright start to new beginnings and chapters to come in my life. Who knew graduating and making new opportunities and adventures could be so exciting and eye opening. I am very grateful. We have a very early start tomorrow (5am ugh), but it's so worth it. I miss car trips and traveling. I think it's somehow part of my DNA to go to different places. Life is very exciting at the moment. Goodnight dear readers. May you be safe wherever you are, and here's hoping you too are able to have your own adventure, be it small or very grand.

Carpe Diem!

Well the last two months have certainly flown by! Apologies for the late update, amid final exams and graduation I am finally able to stop and smell the roses. Friends, oh my they smell so good! I can officially say I am a university graduate with a Bachelors Degree (feels so good to say that), and that I can check university off my list of life accomplishments. After about five years it's high time it was done and dusted! So what is next you ask? Well a much needed holiday. I must admit I am still getting used to not signing up for classes with classmates, no more studying late nights, or any homework of any kind. Well.. except for what I call my own homework here at home. However, I am enjoying the time off and the fact that I can put school behind me. It's very nice to be done and to feel accomplished. In a few weeks I am off to see family in the Northern USA, and then off to Europe. I am so blessed what the past year has given me and am continually grateful for this upcoming trip. Life is so good right now, and I have allot of faith that it will keep getting better.

I also have been thinking about the job spectrum, since that is the first thing you are supposed to do after graduation, right? I am currently employed but I would like to do something more enjoyable and in my field of study. My dream is an internship offered this fall with a publishing company, since my love is editing and books--lots of books! So I plan on applying for them in a few months, but I put in a few applications in the mean time. We'll see what happens. I truly think the next few months shall be a very grand adventure. I plan on taking it on with hope and joy to what life brings to me in the time ahead.

I hope, dear readers, that this finds you well. Keep writing, reading, and pursuing those lovely little things in life that give us courage to take on the bigger things.
