My List to Better Myself

96. Read the annotated version of Alice in Wonderland

Finished! This goal also doubles as my book for the month of May.

I have to say that I REALLY enjoyed reading this and I strongly encourage reading annotated version of your favorite books. I learned A LOT and now have a better understanding of Lewis Carroll and his writings. Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass have been my absolute favorite books since the first time I read them and even though I read them like twice a year this time was it was different. My appreciation for his literature has grown tremendously.

Included in this book was a chapter that was cut from the final version of Through the Looking Glass and the original pencil sketches done by John Tenniel. If you have never read these books DO IT! You wont be disappointed! If you are a fan of chess then read Through the Looking Glass for sure!

So I decided that if I was ever going to complete the goal of writing in a blog/journal for 60 consecutive days then I better make it separate from my goal blog so....

I now have 2 blogs. I created another one for my personal blog posts and hopefully I can get some stuff written. Please follow me their too www.jesnu2.blogspot.com

Im gonna try to come up with a new poll each week for you peeps to vote one. This week is: What should I do for my birthday? So go vote and tell me what you think!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another goal complete!

5. Graduate from College

I am now the recipient of a Bachelor's Degree in Criminal Justice. Graduation was on May 16, 2009 at 10 AM.



This post is incredibly late but I've been kinda busy trying to get my life in order. lol. I am glad to say though, that I am done with school and very proud of myself, Kevin and the rest of our friends that have graduated too. I wish us all the best of luck in the future.

These past couple of days after graduation have been crazy and some what sad. Crazy because since graduation a lot has happened... Kevin sprained his ankle, Charlie and Drew moved away, the Rangers swept the Astros (We went to game 1 and I caught a Josh Hamilton BP ball!), and the Bearkat Baseball team WON the SLC tournament for the THIRD year in a row!!!!!!!!!!!! (And we were there to see it happen!!!) and sad because we are finally letting reality set in.
