College Graduate.

MAY 11, 2013 - A day I will never forget! A day that allowed me to close a chapter in my life and start a new one at the same time. A day that I fulfilled one of my many goals I've set for myself in life, and I pleasingly accomplished this one.

I GRADUATED FROM UNIVERSITY WITH MY BACHELORS OF SCIENCE IN BIOLOGY|CHEMISTRY!

I was so excited for this day to come as I've been patiently waiting. This day was just full of joy! I almost cried before my name was called, but I remembered that I had makeup on and I didn't want to that run, especially when I was going to get my photo taken LOL. All my friends, family and boyfriend came to support me and I'm truly grateful. And the weather was PERFECT! Forecast said it was suppose to rain all day, but thanks to Jesus that it was sunny (and hot) all day. Also, Houston in unpredictable.  

After the ceremony, my family and I visited the opposite campus, TSU, because my cousin was graduating from pharmacy school (I'll be there in 4 years by the grace of God). I'm so proud of him! Even his mom came all the way from Nigeria to watch this moment.

We then went to a Mediterranean restaurant called Dimassi, which was good. It was the first time for everyone, except me, eating that type of food. When we all came home, we took the longest nap in life! Like 5 hours. We were all full! 

Overall, this day was a blessing, among all blessing and I'm just really grateful for everything. It is now Mother's Day so I'm going to get ready for church.

Coming to an End.

Wow, it has been so long since I've updated. Last update was for my 22nd birthday, then after that, I went straight MIA Don't you hate hiatuses? 

This last semester of undergrad has been quite turbulent, from meetings, to banquets & receptions, exams, school interviews, etc, but I'm happy to say that I graduate next Saturday, May 11th CLASS OF 2013!!!! *Screams. I cannot wait til that day comes, seriously. I feel like it's just another milestone in life but I'm ready to take the leap. I took my graduation photos today, came out pretty nice. I was afraid Houston was going to rain again, but luckily it didn't while I was outside.

I have two more finals next week but I've been suffering from major senioritis! My semester grades are looking right tho: Endocrinology - A, Medical Terminology - A, Integration of Biologoical Knowledge - A, Anatomy II Lab - B, Cell Biology -B & Physical Chemistry - B+ (WHICH I'M SO FREAKIN' HAPPY ABOUT) I just feel like my life is temporarily set now. About to be a college graduate and I'm starting pharmacy school in the fall (WHOOOOOP!) and I'm just really appreciative of everything!

My favorite part... PICTURES!

School: stress, happiness, & relief.

I think this is the first time that majority of my ensemble has been thrifted, even my mom complimented me on my "vintage" look. This was after church and I felt like snapping photos, plus I just got my hair done *flips hair. 22" inch Brazilian in a 1B. I never got hair this long before, and I loose curled it with a curling wand cus it was even longer than what's seen now. I'm thinking about dying the tips or maybe perhaps even an ombre effect. I was so used to the brown hair color, even though it was just only for the duration of summer.

School starts tomorrow! This is my last year of undergrad, and I'm almost done with my pharmacy school application. I take the PCAT in less than a month (pray for me) that's the only thing in the way of my future. I've been studying, reviewing old topics, trying to re-learn and understand concepts and complete practice questions. 

I finally got my apartment, but it's not ready for move-in until this Wednesday. It's such a relief that I found one cus I originally had another two in mind, but those plans fell through/didn't work out so I thought I'd be stuck in my parent's house, commuting. I DID NOT want to do that. Overall, I'm praying for a successful semester, and those going back to school as well, I wish you all the best.
