Graduation
#1
As I sit here in Iceland and type this, I will be graduating in a few hours. One book closes, and another one begins.

And I confess it's pretty scary, but am releaved as hell that this part is over. I now no longer have to go to school, I've studied what is obligated to me, but that doesnt mean I will stop here. Next stop, is to try and get into the art university here in Iceland. There is a new program being started, created by various companies such as CCP, the Icelandic game company that created the online video game EVE. Its a two year program with a Diploma at the end of it, and with that, it should increase my chances of getting into another art university in Florida, to learn Game Art.

And if I dont get in the university here, well...its not the end of the world. I will have to wait a whole year before trying again, but in that time I can still go to art classes in the school here, take an extra semester which I have applied just in case. I can work on getting even better, to prepare myself for the future.

Its been a long, hard road for me. Not so long ago that I, and many others would never have believed I'd be able to graduate. Not so long ago that I had zero confidance and ambition in myself, was just going through the motions, not really caring. But that has changed. I have changed. Still a lot for me to travel, but I am well on my way.

Anyway, the graduation will be in a few hours, big day in my life, and the future is looking both frightening and exciting at the same time. I do wonder where I will be a year later, but I guess I'll eventualy find out.

I just wanna say CONGRATULAKALATIONS Icy! X3 Graduating sure is a big thing, unless you graduated high school for the third time, like me (this time, I DIDN'T get hit with a bar stool! Yay me!), then you just breeze by and wonder how college is gonna be like. Good luck with your future!

Congratulations! Even if things don't pan out quite the way you have in mind, keep doing your damndest, and things will work out okay.
