Hi all-
For those of you who have been keeping up with my posts, you are probably thinking shouldn’t she be finished with that MFA by now? Well, I am in the home stretch. I have one more round of homework to go, and create a video for my graduate lecture. I will graduate on November 18th, and the ability to wrap my mind around that is eluding me.
I am the class representative, and will be giving brief remarks at commencement. How I will be able to make it through those remarks without crying is beyond me. I have yet to read it aloud to myself without getting teary-eyed and overall just choked up. My theme involves the book Harold and the Purple Crayon. Suffice it to say I’m using the purple crayon to inspire my classmates to draw themselves where they want with their brand-spanking-new degree.
I am going to say that I’m not really ready to be done with school. But, the time has come, and I must leave the nest. I still have the dream to move to LA, but now I also want to have a superstar literary agent for my novel. And one for the movie rights lol! I need to add that to the list of goals.
I’m going to leave it there for now. As I complete my final homework, I’ll keep you posted.
