I already stated in Feb that I have a degree and ring, but I have yet to hang my degree, maybe I will this weekend. I had to send my ring back and get it re-sized because it was too big. I just got it back yesterday. Tomorrow I am going to attend a "honoring the ring" ceremony at the college.
Even tho it was "official" December 18th, 2012, I put off walking the stage until May so that whatever family wanted to come out they had more time than a month to plan for it. And more time to think of and possibly send me gifts. :D My mom is thinking either an Alaskan Cruise for her, dad and I (BTW dad, get your passport. :P) or a trip to Austin to see Barry Manilow. And as much as I love Manilow, and some stops in Austin I think I'd rather have the Cruise... or ya know,
Both.
I am still in college this semester taking Calculus I. We have taken two tests and have two test and final to go. I did awesome on the first test (90) and okay on the second (79). I can do test corrections to get back 20% of the grade lost I might do them for the second test. But the lowest of the four tests gets dropped at the end of the class. So I just have to get more than an 85s on the next two and a 90 on the final to get an A in the class without having to do test corrections.
Other than my math class the other thing to talk about for this semester would be my Job. This season we got a new Office Manager, and no one likes him.
My office manager sent me a text yesterday telling my I have a meeting that I Have to attend with my District Leader tomorrow. When I asked both my Office Manager and District Leader what this meeting was for, my Office Manager said "dont be late" and my District Leader didn't respond to my email. -- Awesome. I'm totally getting fired tomorrow. I hope not, but my Office Manager has just been terrible to me all season and probably spewed off some bullshit to my District Leader.
I hope I get hired back next season, and if I do and the current Office Manager is the manager next season almost everyone including me will not be going back to our current office. Almost all of us with try our best to transfer out and leave him with new people who cant do anything.
Oh, and for the last three weeks, twice a week Ive been going to Physical Therapy for my neck because its been causing me tons of pain since the car accident. once its better I'm submitting all my Co-Pays to the insurance company for reimbursement. $12 a visit twice a week adds up.
So far in 4 visits my neck is doing much better. I just have to keep doing the exercises and hopefully it gets its range back.

The High Kings are probably my new favorite band. I like all of their songs and they are the only band on my phone. They are an Irish band, so if you listen to the song, I've included the sad lyrics below the video.
In the village of Kilgory, there’s a maiden young and fair
Her eyes they shone like diamonds, she had long and golden hair
Then a countryman came riding, up to her father's gates
Mounted on a milk-white stallion, he came at the stroke of eight
Chorus:
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter
Step it out, Mary, if you can
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter
Show your legs to the wealthy man
I have come to wed your daughter, Mary of the golden hair
I have gold and I have silver I have land beyond compare
I will buy her silks and satin and a gold ring from her hand
I will buy for her a mansion, she'll have servants to command
Chorus
Kind sir I love a soldier, I have pledged to him my hand
I don't want your gold or silver, I don't want you house or land
Mary’s father spoke up sharply, You will do as you are told
You will marry him on Sunday and you'll wear his ring of gold
Chorus
Near the village of Kilgory there's a deep stream running by
They found Mary there at midnight, she had drowned with her soldier boy
In the village there is music, you can hear her father say
Step it out Mary, my fine daughter, Sunday is your wedding day.
Chorus twice.
