Graduation and appreciation

Tomorrow is graduation and while this is not technically about literature, it's my blog so I'm gonna blog about it anyway. lol

If not for some very important people in my life I would not be about to graduate and I'd like to take a few to thank them.

Bill -- My love and my life. You are my rock and my support. Your love has given me the confidence in myself to do anything.

Becky, Chris, and Sarah -- You 3 are the best things that have ever happened in my life. I am blessed to be your mom and to have watched you grow into the wonderful adults you are today. I love you all.

Jessica and Jesi -- You kept me real while encouraging me to do my best. You kept me laughing and kept me able to see the absurd side of things. I love you guys.

Joseph -- My dad. You taught me there wasn't anything I could't do if I just put my mind to it. I love you daddy and always will. This one's for you. I did it!!

My friends and family -- Your love and support has meant the world. We are all affected by those around us, I'm blessed to say I have the best friends and family in the world.

And finally:
Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon -- Queen

While I may have never met you in person, your music and your words have influenced my life for many years. "We Are The Champions" got me and the kids through some very dark years. No matter what life threw at us, we knew we'd survive because we ARE the champions.

A line from "Innuendo" says: "You can be anything you want to be, just turn yourself into anything you think that you could ever be." That's exactly what I've been doing and this song reminds me of it every time I hear it.

And finally "I want it all, I want it all, I want it all, and I want it Now." This has been my 'theme' song while in school, and it was written by Queen. I want it all and thanks to the education I've received at Ivy Tech and the one I'll be getting at IUSB, I will have it all!

Thank you everyone!!!!
