new things, new places

Well, a lot has happened since I last posted.

1. I graduated from college!

• 4 years gone, and so fast too. I sat next to my friend Erin at graduation, and it seemed like just yesterday the two of us were graduating from high school. What happened? Where did the time go?
• The graduation speaker was great, he was funny and entertaining and the whole ceremony was very nice: short, to the point, and the speakers all did their job in being interesting and not at all boring.
• Now I can't believe I am really done. No more classes, no more noon wake-ups, no more skipping class and other responsibilities just because I feel like I want. Welcome to the real world Antonia...
  

2. I got a job!!!

• I am the newest Media Coordinator at MRPP, Inc. in Cary! I really am so excited.
• I start June 6th and I really can't wait. Although I am pretty sure that as the time nears, I will be a little nervous knowing how much I will be expected to know and learn in the first few weeks. I am sure it will be slightly overwhelming, but it is going to be a challenge I will be more than happy and willing to tackle.
  

Wow.

And with all that comes the fact that I will need to move in the next few weeks. No more living at my wonderful home of 4 years here in Finley Forest, which will be extremely strange. Its been such a great place to live, and some of my very best friends who live next door will be a car ride away now. Strange.

At the same time, I am excited. New place, new beginning, new chance to prove myself. It will be nice to hopefully get my own place. I am trying to live by myself, which I things would make me happiest in the long run. Roomates can be stressful, and although mine have been wonderful this past year, not having to deal with other people's things and schedules, etc. will be awesome. I also plan on hopefully getting new couches, maybe a new bed, something like that when I move (my graduation present from my parents).

I am also going to see what I can do about finding new wheels. Victor is just giving me such a hassle recently that I feel I need something more reliable if I am going to be expected to get to work on time every day. Working A/C would also probably be super in the North Carolina summer heat. :)

Today I spent hours organizing my belongings and trying to get rid of the junk I have accumulated over the last few years. After 4 trash bags, and 4 more bags for goodwill, I decided to stop for the day, but the organizing will continue early next week I think.

Maybe I will write a little about the new job soon. For now, that is it...

Dinner time!
