Happy Commencement 2012....

 
Seeing my Alumna Mater post pictures of graduation today, I look back to my own and see how crazy it is to think it was 2 years ago! Two years doesn't seem like a like, but it is when you thought it was just yesterday you walked down those stairs of Blaney Hall one last time, not knowing what was ahead of you.
 
I would have never had thought in a million years I would be where I am today, a librarian and artist!
It's nostalgic, Cedar Crest, a home away from home. A place where I learned what a woman was and how not to be afraid to embrace the world and myself. To know, I can make a difference and that I was strong enough to handle anything. That's the thing about Cedar Crest, you come in as a girl of innocence and out a woman made of steal! I thank you Cedar Crest. I wouldn't be the woman I am today and make it through the struggles I have without your backbone. Sometimes I feel as if  I had lost my way and don't know what I'm missing and it's you, my alumna mater.
