Commencement

In the Fall of 2009 I decided to go back to school for many more reasons that just the desire of learning... Today, I am happy to say that since that time I've grown a lot, made some amazing friends and learned valuable lessons that go beyond the academic.


I have to thank my family for being there for me through the good, the bad and the countless hours of hearing me whine about all those terrible group projects... people are not much into excellence these days!


Once again... I have to wish out loud that the desired job offer arrives soon as I am more than ready to rejoin the workforce, be at the top of my game and become the professional I've always wanted to be {wishing hard!!!}.


Finally, thanks to all of you who have been there since then with amazing comments... Here's to tuning a new leaf and for amazing new things to come.

THANKS!
