Semi-AWOL-ness

Sometimes I forget that there are people actually read these. Sorry for the semi-AWOL-ness.

But I had all sorts of tests and finals and stuff.

And I graduated yesterday. I had one more class to take and I could've graduated with an associate's this year, too, but I'll probably do fall graduation. Anyway, graduation was weird because my dad got front row tickets despite the fact that I sent him nothing. But he is very good at talking to people and probably gave someone at the doors some sad life story and they gave him spare tickets. I don't know; he's a very good actor, and very convincing if you don't know him. He also didn't recognize me until my name was called, and then he started yelling at me as I walked back through the gates (it was a small stadium; my class is 406). I started cussing when I saw him. I don't cuss. So I ended up being escorted out the back entrance by a police officer to get picked up, since the local police department has him on file and all that stuff (he tried to start drama with the school district, until my mom informed them that he'd been previously arrested for attempted armed robbery and I guess that's where they got the record. I don't know).

After checking to make sure we weren't being followed, we had pizza.

And I got some pictures of lightning. This one's my favorite. I may create a photography blog, which I'll share on here if I do.

Oh, and college. I found one. I don't like it. Not because it's a particularly bad school, but because I have to fight the housing people for reasons too personal to put here. I'm majoring in civil engineering and minoring in Spanish translation. Everyone thinks I'm a physics major.

I added a new poem. Codetry.

I hope everyone else is doing okay. I'm not ignoring anyone, just tired.
