Had to say goodbye to a few things these past two days. First, I said deuces to my last day as an undergrad as soon as I handed that second final in. Second, I had to say goodbye (and hand in my access key (like for real, though. I was aiming to keep that shit)) to Billboard as their intern for the semester. I’m meeting up with some of my coworkers there after work today for some drinks and such and it should be a good time, but still. Just bittersweet. At least I know I made a shitload of good connections/references this semester and if they’re hiring, guess who’s the number one pick? Ah ha.
Fuck, I graduate in roughly 8 days and I still don’t know what to think of it all. Those four years fly by I tells ya, and I’m glad I stayed and kept my talents in Brooklyn because a lot of shit during this stretch definitely wouldn’t have happened. And I just got word today I’m receiving an award from a judge from my Children and Youth Studies degree (flashback: I’m a double major, TWO BACHELOR’S DEGREES) so I’m pretty hyped. Think there’s some cash involved too which is extra noice.
I don’t mean to be that old dude swinging on his ol rocking chair sipping on some lemonade watching the young ones play, but I feel accomplished as fuck. I’ve always wanted to go to college (to get that knowledge lawls) since I was in elementary school, and that…ahem, I mean those degrees are going to solidify the hell out of what I’ve been working for. And it’s only the beginning, I can tell you that.
And can I say that June 8th is going to be a hell of a good time? Partying with my friends, having a good time, plus me and my peeps Man’E Ill and Goldilocks are gonna perform? Can’t get any better than that. Well, I mean I’d like to kiss a face there (with consent of course).
Stay Classy.
