Goodbye

Well I graduated yesterday. Its hard to believe that four years have really gone by and the place I have called home for so long I now call my alma mater. All nostalgia aside, graduation day was amazing and bittersweet at the same time. It was, however, great for some final pictures.
This is me ringing the victory bell. This is my favorite tradition at Coe. Every year the entire entering class rings the bell on their first day, then the graduating class rings it right before commencement. I thing I rang it lounder that anyone in the college's history.

This is me getting my award and learning the secret handshake of Phi Beta Kappa.

So anyway, I'm done with college... kind of. I am leaving Thursday for Vietnam to take a May Term class through Coe. I just can't quite let go. Then I'm going to come home and try to figure out my life. I have applied to the Peace Corps and am hoping that works out and is in my near future, but we'll see.

If you want to follow me on my Vietname adventure, I'm going to try to blog as much as possible on http://wanderingkohawk.blogspot.com. I'd love to have you!
