Thanks! You guys are awesome! Kathryn - you made my day, glad I can be such an inspiration!

The ceremony went well - I didn't fall and they pronounced my name right so I'd say it was a success lol. It was long and boring, but hey, it's over! I'm so proud! It feels nice to be sitting at home when normally at this time I'd be in class haha.

I'm not quite sure what I'm doing career wise yet, a bachelor's doesn't get you very far in psychology. I have applied for a Community Support Worker position about 45 minutes south of here, I'd be doing case management and interviews with adolescents recovering from substance abuse, which is right up my alley. I said going into my major I wanted to work with troubled adolescents. Wish me luck! I'm also doing the FEMA's training courses for working with disaster victims - I'd love to do that sometime and the extra training looks good on a resume. I took disaster psychology this semester and it's the only course of it's kind offered to undergrads anywhere in the nation - it's a good prep course for FEMA's training. I'm excited - I have some options!

Thanks again girls for all your kind words!
