hail, not-entirely-nourishing mother.

Yesterday I graduated, which is not to say I'm any wiser for the experience. Any sagacity I've managed to accrue these past four years has been the result of a series of tiny steps. College has been, well, graduated- any change happened slowly, not overnight. So for me, graduation is just a walk across a stage. No big change, no great realization.

I'm pretty sure my life after Maryland is going to be the same way. I have a BS in Computer Science, so I'll be heading to Northern Virginia midsummer to start working. I'll learn new software, new systems, and new coworkers, and I'll grow- slowly. I might have a few bills to rub together, too, which should prove interesting and possibly act as a catalyst for a bit more change. I don't think that sort of thing will go to my head, though, since I'm way too used to being broke in one way or another.

I'm still the same Kevin- I still want to write and think and have fun. Only now I'm a Kevin with a piece of paper that says I'm smart and know stuff. I guess after Maryland we'll see what it is I actually do know.
