The end is in sight!

3 years ago this month my Dad moved me to Corvallis kicking and screaming. Okay not really, but I did not want to go! He would tell me over and over “getting an education is one of the most important things you will ever do.” I would cry and say “you just don’t understand,” but now that the end is in sight I am starting to realize that he might just understand after all. Don’t get me wrong, there has been NOTHING easy about my college experience. I put 40,000 miles on my brand new car, forced my parents to jump on the Verizon band wagon so we could talk cell to cell and managed to lose 75 pounds. Yup, that’s how good of a cook I am! Just kidding, I am a horrible cook, but that’s not why I lost so much weight :] Graduating with my associates degree in general agriculture and my license to do hair will be one of my biggest accomplishments. I have learned so much about agriculture, hair and most importantly life. I am extremely grateful for the opportunity my parents have given me to get an education. There is no way I could have done it without them. Here’s to my 3 year anniversary of living in Corvallis, Oregon!!!!!
