This Week Killed 24.6% of my Liver

Yesterday I graduated from college. Fin.

Kidding. My name is Leslie Keegan, and I just graduated from UMD with a BA in Spanish. I was also Pre-Physical Therapy, which gives you nothing... as in if you were to look at my transcript without knowing that I plan to continue on to graduate school, chances are you'd be confused. And probably judge me a little.

Yesterday was an interesting day to say the least. I learned that it is possible for a ceremony graduating 80 people can last 2.5 hours, I learned that a certain Japanese major likes horses and wants to die looking at clouds, and (most importantly) I learned that I am secretly a giant bitch who has no trouble publicly denying the hug of her department head. Celebrations were in order for all that learning, and I couldn't have asked for better friends and family with whom to par-tay. PS- got the entire Hoopla game filmed.

As for the future, I am continuing my job as a physical therapist aide in a sports medicine clinic in Silver Spring (aaahh... THAT'S why she majored in Spanish) during the month of June before traveling through Europe with my younger brother James. After that, more of the same but in a clinic in Bethesda and/or Germantown for about 2 years until I go back to school. Then you may all call me Dr. Leslie. Or Dr. Awesome. Whichever feels more natural. I'm excited to see what life throws my way, and to read about the exploits of my friends. I love you all.

Yesterday I graduated from college. Still in denial.
