Graduation Season

Hi, Everyone!

The title says it all: It’s Graduation Season!

And seeing as how we are in the aforementioned celebrated season, today’s blog is dedicated t three graduates whom I know personally. Coincidentally, they are also in my family.

First of all, y’all already know that, in six days, my Cousin Calvin will be graduating from Cal State Long Beach, with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration. Y’all also know how much I would love to be out there and help him celebrate, but since I have about another two weeks of summer school, I can only send him a graduation card with a gift certificate to one of his favorite stores. I know he likes Best Buy and Chili’s, so I’m gonna do a little shopping this weekend and get a little something-something for Big Cal.

And I just thought of something: Ray also goes to Cal State Long Beach—hopefully he may meet Cousin Calvin!

Also, my Cousin Erica will be graduating from Volunteer State High School on Friday, May 31, 2013. Now, this is gonna be a dilemma because my finals are on the same day, and I can’t mess that up. If I remember correctly, Cousin Erica’s graduation doesn’t start until 3pm or 4pm (Central Standard Time, of course), and I think my last final is scheduled at 1pm. Either way, I’m not gonna worry about it, nor will I stress over it—whatever happens, is gonna happen, and it’ll work itself out in the end.

Finally, we have the icing on the cake—the “coop de gracie,” if you will: Rebecca Ann Morgan! I’m really excited for her because she has truly come a long way from where she once was to where she is now. If I gotta miss Cousin Calvin’s and Cousin Erica’s respective graduations, then that’s just gonna have to be the case. However, I cannot afford to miss Becky’s graduation; she’ll be officially earning her high school diploma on Friday, June 21. I’ll already be home by then, and I plan on helping her celebrate Jones-Stewart style!

Well, that’s gonna do it for me today. I’ll be back tomorrow with yet another blog. Y’all take care.

Hugs & Kisses,

Natasha
