So this is how my day went down.
6am wake up to get ready, I had to be to the school by 7:30.
8am Convocation. This was an hour of boredom. Thank goodness I was sitting by Gina, we pretty much talked the whole time which made it bearable. The speaker was awful. She kept talking about how it is our responsibility to save the environment that her generation destroyed, blah, blah, blah. I know it's important to care about the environment. But she was pretty much chastising us at our graduation. Not cool.
9:30 pics with my friends
10:30 Brent's commencement. Brent earned his Masters of Accountancy. I'm so proud of him. That is such a huge achievement! I hope to be hooded some day when I earn my Masters. We only stayed long enough to watch him walk and get hooded because we had to eat before my commencement. The speaker at his was way good. He spoke of having ethics and how you have to decide now what you will and won't do. He said, "Everyone needs to have Go To Hell Money." He then went on to explain what Go To Hell Money is. You need to have enough money saved up that when your boss asks you to do something you think is unethical or you don't feel good about doing, you have enough money to tell him, "Go To Hell!" I really liked that because we talked a lot about ethics in hygiene and I'm certain that there will come a time in my dental career that someone will ask me to do something unethical, and I won't do it.
11:00 Brunch at the Union Building.
12:00 Line up for commencement. It was so fun to walk. It felt like such a huge accomplishment. It was also somewhat unreal to me. I've been working towards this moment since I was 14 and now, 10 years later, I did it. Crazy! Britt took lots of family pictures after so I'm excited to see those.
2:30 Lunch at TGI Fridays's. It was really good. My old friend Nate Hirschi was our waiter, I didn't even recognize him so I'm glad he said something.
5:00 We headed down to Brittany's to watch the kids/help with Christy & Kenny's engagement pics.
7:00 Headed to SLC for the Jazz game. Yep, we got row 5 tickets to the game that sent them to Round 2 with the Lakers. The Rockets didn't have a chance. Right from the beginning the Jazz played awesome and they kept it up the whole game. I love Kyle Korver!! He is so hot. I wish I would have had my camera because towards the end of the game when they were 20 points ahead, he kept encouraging the crowd to stand and be loud. He's so cute! By the 3rd quarter the busyness of the day caught up with me and I crashed. I was so tired that I felt sick. The sickness was also brought on by the halftime show which was Rubber Boy. It was the most disgusting thing ever. The boy would like dislocated his shoulders to do crazy tricks. He would contort his body in the most disgusting ways. At some points I had to turn away. I never felt good after seeing that. Dave went and got me a Diet Coke, so by the end of the game I had enough energy to stand and cheer. I love going to games, it was so fun! As we walked to the care I was seriously delirious due to fatigue. Good thing Dave was with me to take care of me or I wouldn't have made it home.
