This is what I thought would happen to the blogging class as soon as summer hit. I know it has been hectic, with people moving and getting back with old friends, but I am still surprised that there hasn't been a post since May 7th.
Well I will be the first to post back and just give an update on my summer. Omaha has been very boring, but I am currently conducting research for a 10 page paper due May 20 for my online class. Wow, someone here forgot that summer was a time to relax, especially after taking 19 credit hours. But what can I say, I want to graduate in four years.
So I hope everyone is having a safe summer so far, I have already seen my fair share of tragedy while here in Omaha and may I send my prayers and condolences out to the Ford family of Ainsworth. Not only did the Ford's lose their 16-year-old daughter, Ashley, in a car accident, but two days later, their son Andrew, 21, died in a car accident. I don't know how anyone can handle that. My prayers and wishes to their family.

Mission Accomplished
Well, this semester was an overwhelming success in my eyes. Coming into the semester, I was registered for 22 credit hours, before dropping my Meteorology class (don't ever take it), to still leave me with 19 credit hours..which is more than I have ever taken. Well finals was a culmination of hard work and dedication in the classroom as I pulled out a 4.0 for the semester, with almost as many A+'s as I had A's (3 compared to 4).
Now I am just 30 credit hours away from finishing my degree and it has not struck me yet that I am officially a collegiate senior and it's scary. It's scary that this time has gone by this fast, as it was just yesterday, or so it seems, that I pledged to be in Alpha Tau Omega. Just yesterday that I was elected as president of that very organization. Just yesterday that I was a member of the UNK Golf team, living out a high school dream. There is so much I have accomplished in three years, 4.0's, member of a collegiate athletic team, photographer at nationally televised games, interviewed nationally known comedians and bands...the list could go on and on. But yet I still have so much more to do with my life and I thank God that I still have a year left to sort it all out.
As for this summer, I am going to relax. I turn 21 at the end of July and already have a trip booked to Vegas, so let the good times roll.
