Cornell Graduation


We are still alive...
We are just getting adjusted to life without school.

All of our friends are heading back to Cornell right now, and for the first time in our lives we are not in school. It is a strange concept and I have to admit that I am feeling a little stagnant. Our whole marriage has revolved around school and now we are in the grown up world. It's a bummer. I told Anthony he should apply to Med school again so we can be in school forever. (... and debt forever too, but I feel like we will be anyways..)

 Truth be told, I think it was a huge blessing that we decided on Cornell instead of medical school. 
Grad school is hard. And I wasn't even in school. Being the wife of a grad student is HARD.
I don't know if I could really survive anymore school. I like having Anthony home and a regular schedule.

On a happier note, Anthony's graduation on May 25 was a really happy day. We made it.

The ceremony was really nice and Andy Bernard from the office gave the commencement speech was awesome. Go on YouTube and watch it. 


I complained about Ithaca a lot, pretty much every day, at least in my head. 
People... I MISS IT. I miss it so much. Cornell is such a beautiful campus and I am sad that I didn't go there EVERY DAY. Ithaca will always hold a very special place in my heart as well as all the wonderful people we met. It is such a unique place and I will miss it forever.
