APAD 72: Sono finito

"Jonathan Edmonds, right, checks to see if his "egg McNasty" is browning correctly as Megan Doan admires his culinary skills in his home in Aurora, Colo. on June 3, 2008. Modeled after the McDonalds signature breakfast item the "egg McNasty" consists of three scrambled eggs and cheddar cheese placed between two perfectly toasted slices of wheat bread."

I can finally say that I'm done with college. I can't tell you how great that feels. I had an 84 question multiple choice test for my Methods of Marketing Research and I feel pretty well about it. I definitely wasn't stressed going into finals and I never really am so that always help me do well. I've developed my own theory to test taking and I use the professor's personality and teaching style to dissect the answers out of questions that i don't know off the top of my head. Over the course of my academic career I think that really helped me do well. It's a great tool to have especially considering that I hate to study and rarely spend more than 30 minutes preparing for an exam. I have always been one to pay close attention in class so that I don't have to spend any time at home learning the material. I should finish with a 3.3 GPA or so which I can say that I'm pleased with.

I had to process some images for a client so I went over to work to have some peace and quiet to be able to get that done. I have spent the past four years working in the athletic department so it was nice to shake the hands of some of my superiors and get a hug from Angel, my boss, as they congratulated me for finishing school. As a student of the 21st century there has never been any doubt that a college education was inevitable but for others around me including my family I can see how big of an accomplishment it is.

As soon as I finished processing the images and talking with a few folks I met up with a friend to play some golf. Julie is just learning the game so we went to play the par 3 course at Harvard Gulch. I played there yesterday and for seven bucks and an hour of your time you can't really beat it. I've always said that even a bad day at the course is better than a good day in the office or class. Julie is definitely progressing every time that we play together which is nice to see. Sure I have a pretty solid game now but I was in her same shoes eight years ago. Once again I couldn't put to save my life but I hit the ball pretty well.

I didn't do much this evening and actually ended up falling asleep for two hours or so before Kelly called and woke me up. I thought we were supposed to go to dinner tonight but apparently she had to stay home for a dinner party that her parents were throwing. Why this is the first that I've heard of this is beyond me. God knows that I can't figure women out, especially her. 

I have plenty of errands tomorrow so I don't think I'll be able to get to the course but you never know. Regardless I don't have to work and I don't have school which is outstanding.
