Officially an MSW (Master of Social Work)

Graduation was long but satisfying. We spent 2 long hours sitting in the sun but there was a cool breeze so we didn't melt. It was sooo great to see all my fellow graduates one last time before I take off for Costa Rica. I can't believe I have a Masters degree, it hasn't really sunk in and I don't think it will until I settle down and join society with a real full-time job. It has been awhile since I have done that. Thank you to everyone who supported me through 2 years of hard work and dedication! I couldn't have done it without you!

My beautiful friend Jenn and I. Our friend and fellow graduate Shay couldn't be with us at graduation because she is busy working her butt off at the Ranch for Biggest Loser. That's right, she is going to be on the show that will air in the fall! She is such an amazing friend, social worker, and person. She inspires us all! We made a cut out of her so we could have pictures with her and send them to her.

CONGRATS! That is so awesome that you are done with your masters! Whenever I do decide what to get a masters in, I'm sure it will take me much longer than 2 years to finish. I love all the fun graduation pictures. Have a great trip to Costa Rica! You deserve it!
