    So, my official graduation is tommorrow (Friday) at 7. Last night, though, I was sleeping, and all of a sudden, my mom bursts into my room, telling me she has a surprise for me. I look over and she's holding my nephew(my sister's son). Now, this would have been normal, except that my sister lives in Magnolia, and I live in Western New York. So then, my sister just walks into my room. SURPRISE! She had come for my graduation. I kind of suspected it, but there's nothing like the real thing.


    AWESOME!

    What's your sister's job ? Why is she living in Mongolia ? Or are you a Mongolian.

    You know, when I was in kindergarden, I used to look at the globes in our classroom at Magnolia Elementary and find Mongolia on the globe, and I used to think that was my town. I thought the world was that small....


    *Sigh*

    Nope. If I had to pick between a couple grand an my sister and niece showing up from California to surprise me for my college graduation, I'd pick the latter every single time.

    Congrats, Eddie!! What a great surprise!

    For the first two years, I'm gonna go to the local community college on a scholarship that pays full tuition. The scholaship comes from being at least in the top 20% of my class. This, coupled with my financial aid means that I'll be getting payed between 1500 and 3000 bucks a semester to go there.

    I'll have to decide where to go after that sometime here in the next year or so.


    I've decided to go to school to become a sports physical therapist.
