Times Are Changin'!!

On Monday, July 19th, I took head on one of the hardest tasks of my life so far...the defending of my thesis! I was so nervous, but at the end of all it (thanks to my awesome friends here!) I passed! I will be graduating from West Texas A&M University on August 6th at 7:00 PM. I never imagined myself making it this far!! Thank you is not enough for all of the people that have pushed me and supported me!!

I am about to start a new adventure in the fall. I will be starting my Ph.D. program back at Texas A&M in meat science/food science/sensory. I am very excited to be going back to aggieland! I look forward to what the future has in store for me!!

This weekend presented a new hard challenge for me...the giving up of my kitties to my parents. I am not allowed to have them in my new place in College Station. I am blessed however that my parents can take them instead of having to find a strange new home for them. It will be definitely be a little different going home each night without them being there...but I guess I will get used to it! Maybe I'll get a fish...

I just wanted to again say thank you to all of the people who supported me and helped on my journey here @ WTAMU! I have grown so much as a person, made many great memories, and learned lessons that have shaped me into the person I am today! I will always carry the work ethic I learned from here and the lessons learned from not only my co-workers, but my advisor and the rest of the faculty here @ WTAMU! GO BUFFS!!!
