So, another corner has been taken and a new path sits at my feet. It's another step forward into age, wisdom, and opportunity. (Though, I'm going to be kicking and screaming in the age department and I hear it's a first come, first serve basis on the other two. )

I've managed by the skin of my teeth this last semester to earn myself a Baccalaureate and the privilege to close the 'Student' chapter in the book of Life and really get immersed in the next entitled "Hooray Student Debt!!" But, in the process of becoming one with the flow of economy... There's the rest of it.

In retrospect of all things, I never would have guessed I would find myself standing before the particular door my hand is currently poised to open. Nor would I have been able to foresee myself filled with a sense of anticipation towards it all. (The anxiety and foreboding sense of endless possibilities is pretty familiar though.)

I've been in the role of student for nigh 20 years of my life, it's kind of odd to imagine not having the looming deadline of that MASSIVE paper due in the next 72 hours clouding over my head any longer. But counting down to Zero Hour about a semesteryear ago, I've found copious amounts of "HEY! That's a neat idea!!" to occupy the time I used to spend on campus and doing homework. Suffice it to say, I've come up with actual plans for myself.

So, here I stand at the very precipice of what's to come... and I'm honestly glad to say that I'm ready for the plunge.



I'm thinking that also, with the new chance at leisure and honest to goodness 'ME time!' I will be able to work on all this pencil snot and make something a little more like art. Maybe learn proportions... how to actually color.... develop a background technique, perhaps?

Definately on the DA To-Do list. =]
