This Back pack is officially RETIRED! (For the time being that is..Grad school?...)

First sorry it's late I'm behind our computer broke right after finals..lucky i know.....IT'S OFFICIAL!!!!!! Yeah....I AM A UNIVERSITY OF UTAH GRADUATE! and will be walking in May.I did it! i got all B's and B+ in my hard classes! i got a B+ in my stats class and i have no idea how i pulled that one off with the worlds meanest teacher!, but i sure am so glad let me tell you...i was so stressed about getting my grades before Christmas because i didn't want that over my head over the holiday....a few days before Christmas i got on the computer to look at my grades...as the page was loading my stomach was in knots! i though i was going to puke! i was all alone in the computer room and they pulled up and i only had one grade up and it was my stats class i looked B+ , i looked at the class number twice to make sure it was right!..i was shocked...happy but shocked! i ran down the hallway screaming and crying! the stress over my head was gone and i had never felt so good...my mom (my parent were staying with us for the holiday) ran down the hall scared i was hurt from the screaming and crying! Dad, Mom and Kay kept yelling "What, what did you do" i said...I GOT A B+!" we cried and hugged! i was happy. And i think Kay was just as happy! soon after i got a few more grades and then all of them! and i did good! This semester was the hardest semester of my college career! as most of you already know because you have read my rants on the blog...sorry! but really i have never had a terrible time with school..it came easy...well this semester was NOT...It was hard...i don't know whether it was just the stress of knowing i had to pass to graduateand i freaked my self out(because i have never failed a class), or if it was my teachers being jerks and totally keeping me in the dark about where i was in the class! either way a huge part of me didn't think i could do it! and that was a weird feeling for me and not like me at all, and a small part of me thought.."oh Heather come on why are you freaking out for nothing you can do it" But it was really because of my friends, family, my amazing parents! and my Kayson who got me through this semester. Kayson was my cheerleader through all of my school! i feel so bad because it was not just hard on me, It was like Kayson was in all of my classes to, he knew all my assignments, deadlines, and stress. We never saw each other, Kayson went to work before i went to school, i went to school until Kayson got off work, then i went to work, when i got home from work Kayson was Coaching b-ball and i was doing home work...It was HARD! and i am so glad it's over. SOOO..thank you thank you thank you thank you...to all of you who helped me, who posted encouraging words and strength, advice and love for me, really it was my saving grace! it really brought me to tears when i read all of your comments, how much you all believed in me, and were praying and thinking about me. IT BLEW ME AWAY! and makes me remember how blessed i am to have the friends and family that love me so much and would do anything for me(and me for them) all of your love and support kept me motivated and kept my spirits high when i lost my hope and did not believe in myself..so thank you so much to all my friends and family who had to listen to me gripe for four months about all my annoying complaints so sorry about that. I can not believe i am done, it still has not set in that i am not going back on Monday, i have had a few days off in a row for the holidays and i had nothing to do, i was walking around my house like a crazy person, feeling weird i had nothing to do, i was getting on the computer, cleaning, on the computer and finally Kay says "Geez Honey RELAX!" ...all i have to say is this will take some getting used to!...but i like! I told Kay all i wanted for graduation was one whole day alone with him!, to talk and just be together so...Me and Kay will be celebrating this week, and the Parents are having a big bash in January!...so come! i will keep you posted on that! Over the holiday i got some graduation gifts..which i did not need, and were all too nice, but i am grateful for those, kay my coat that i love and all my other gifts!, Mom and dad Gines, my Sewing machine which i have used twice already..love it(new hobby?hehe) and my parents gave me spending money and will be sending us to Kodiak, Ak for a Fishing get away and to chill with the McCluskys...we can't wait! thank you thank you thank you! SO...Thank you thank you thank you for all your love and thoughts......
I LOVE ALL YOUR GUTS!!!!!

Ya baby! College graduate! Now that feels good to have under your belt, doesn't it? School is HARD and you did it! I remember my last semester and how stressful it was. I was barely pregnant and I was a mess trying to focus and get all my papers, presentations and exams together! Once I finished it was a little bitter sweet just cause it was neat to be learning and having that busy college experience. But I tell ya what, I never wanted to write another paper or present a topic for a long long long time. You are DONE Heath! Go make babies. Haha
heather we are all so proud of you. you should feel great. relax... we love you. way to go!
Hooray! What fantastic news! I'm thrilled that you did it! You deserve to be very proud of yourself! Congratulations from all of us!
