Unforgettable

This past weekend I graduated from Washington State University with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Human Development.  How exciting.  It is truely a weekend I will never forget.  These are just a few of the highlights:

5. Tailgating in the Crimson & Gray parking lot :) My apartment was a mess (Ugh, roommates!), campus was crazy, so we made the best of it! We put out the snacks on Uncle Bill's tailgate, and dug right in!
4. Introducing my family to some of my professors (and my advisor/mentor Laura).  It's funny to think that these two different groups of people know me so well on so many levels, yet they do not know each other! It felt like a gap in my circle was closed.
3.Sitting down to a nice dinner with my family, some of Casey's family, and some friends.  It was relaxing, and so heartwarming to see the different groups of people (who had just met) enjoy a meal together. 
2. Waiting in line with my Human Development friends.  We weren't the closest friends, but we all had classes together and experienced the same grueling research papers and exams...so sharing that moment was priceless.
1. Walking into Beasley Coliseum and furiously texting Casey and my family asking them where they were at.  The feeling I had when I finally saw them waving vigorously at me in the crowd of hundreds of people is one that I'll never forget.  They looked so proud of me, and I was proud to call them mine.  I think I even teared up a little bit.

Thanks again everyone for making it so unforgettable :)
