I really have no idea what to say or how.... Tonight was my last presentation in my MBA program. I don't know what to do, what to say or how to feel. It's 100 emotions all at once... It's going to take me awhile to enter the "real" world again. I don't think it has really hit me what I have just accomplished or what it means, it may take awhile.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone. Regardless of how much I talked to you or you were around everyone in my life played a part in supporting me through this. You have no idea what it means to me and how much this has taught me. Thank you for understanding, yelling at me when needed, being there to listen and faith in me I could do it and do it well.
What in the world am I going to do and how am I going to handle this??

Houston
Was great the first day as it was nice, sunny and warm. We went to the Houston NASA Space Center for the day on Wednesday and it was pretty interesting. Different than the one at the Cape, not sure if it was better or not. After that it got cold. It seems as if we brought Ohio weather with us.
Thanksgiving was good. No instant mashed potatoes or StoveTop for those of you who know what I am talking about. We made dinner in Kyle's little apartment and it was fine. Ashely made a great Apple Pie and things were fine. Kyle crashed for a nap and the three of us planned our shopping outing. None of us had ever gotten up to do the after Thanksgiving morning shopping but we did this year. We planned on getting up to be at Kohl's at 4am when they opened.
We got up around 2:30 and were at Kohl's by 3:30. The thing about Texas is you can carry a weapon (neat). Kyle about threatened me with death if I made any smart comments. He and I crammed in the doors and got carts and then for added flair went running down the isles screaming. It was hilarious. We went because I got a 7 piece luggage set for $50 (originally $200) and my current set looks like it has been beaten several times. We also went because Kyle is building a house and we wanted to get him some stuff on sale. We were done with Kohl's by 4:45. Went home, ate breakfast and went to Target. Not a whole lot there but I did get more stuff for Kyle's extra bathroom. (I told him I would buy all the stuff for the spare bathroom for him - decorating is not really up his alley) Finally home at 7 and back to bed till around 10. I'm not sure I would do it again unless there were some things I really wanted. There is no way I would ever go to a mall.
The rest of the trip was good. We saw Kyle's lot of dirt and the model of the house he is building. It rained a ton, I have never seen storms like that. We went to a Texas Two-Step bar on Friday night and I have never laughed so hard in my life. We all sucked, badly. It was hilarious. We saw where he works and basically hung out. Played some games, had a fire and watched football. It was a good weekend. I hate being home and having him so far away. At least he will be home in a few weeks for Christmas. Here are some pictures of the house and the space center.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Just wanted to wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving. We are off today to Houston to see Kyle. Never been to Texas, not a huge fan, but I will have to get over it. I am crossing my fingers that our flights will be ok and this won't be too much of a hassle. I'm taking my camera, we'll see what I come back with.
Oh yea - in the event you are also counting - I only have three more classes. As of last night there will be no more classes of learning. I am all learn-ed. Only presentations left. YIPPIE!!!!

No Matter What
No matter what happens this weekend in football, Michigan still sucks. Regardless of how either team plays or who wins, Michigan still sucks. I plan on wearing my Appalachian State shirt tomorrow and again on Saturday under my OSU jersey. Moral of the story - Michigan still/always sucks.
Tuesday we leave for Houston for Thanksgiving. While it may be warmer as of now it looks like it is going to rain. Never been to Houston so we shall see. I'll report when I get back with my thoughts. The worst thing is no leftovers and usually I eat Thanksgiving dinner for weeks after. I guess mom will have to make it again.

- November - Thanksgiving at Kyle's in Houston
- December - Orlando for training for work.
- January - Antigua with a friend for her wedding! (WARM & SUN!)
- January - San Antonio for training for work.
- February - Houston to visit Kyle.
- February - Maryland to visit Grandparents.
- March - England with Mom!
- May - Zion & Bryce National Parks in Utah with Kyle, Ashley and Aaron.

Ladies & Gentlemen
Yes, I'm at work but I just realized this. I have SIX, count them SIX more classes until my MBA program and school is over for good! Holy cow..... Am I dreaming? This is unreal. Now the big question is.... what do I want to be when I grow up now that I have this degree?!

Motivation
Is currently a HUGE issue for me. The fact that the end is so close for school does not make it any easier to do the work I need to do. This week I have a lot of stuff due and would rather do anything, include clean my apartment from top to bottom and then some, before do it. I have a lack of motivation and any ideas you can give to help me get my butt in gear for these next few weeks would be appreciated. I already have a countdown to the number of weeks I have left and thought that would help, maybe not. Also, Kyle was here this weekend and I couldn't spend all the time I wanted with him because of stuff for school Boo.
On a high note, OSU won and we saw the team and coaches walk into the stadium. We have a picture on our phones, but I have no idea how to get that on here. Mom and I had awesome seats in C deck. They were actual seats, not hard, cold cram 800 people into one row seats. Nice!

Who!
Fatty (or Kyle) is coming home from Houston this weekend! He is coming home for the OSU vs. Wisconsin game and a family friend got mom and I tickets! The game is at noon and Kyle is so excited he wants to get down there at 9am. Wow.... Oh well, spending the day with him and mom won't be bad and at least it's not a night game. We're gonna freeze but not too badly. GO BUCKS!
