DD + Life Update
Many thanks to GDeyke for featuring this little poem of mine: I wrote it back in 2018 after almost a year has passed since my boy's death. Poetry has left me, however, and I haven't had any inspiration to write anything else since then (though I've tried a couple times). I'm not sure if I'll write poetry again or anytime in the foreseeable future. However, that isn't to say I've abandoned writing altogether. I've been taking a short story writing class, and the professor has been impressed with my writing so far (a good sign, I hope!). I plan on posting some of those stories here once the semester is over in April. In other news, I've applied for a Master of Education program with a Higher Education Leadership emphasis. Fingers crossed that I get accepted. I hope to one day secure a position as an academic advisor while teaching a class or two as an adjunct on the side. Of course, we'll see where the future takes me! Additionally, I met a young man from Oklahoma who fills my days

People kept stopping me afterwards to tell me how much they liked my speech, even at the restaurant where I celebrated.
I also won the Outstanding Student Graduate Award for both of m
Degree, new poem, updates, and shit.
Just wanted to offer a small update to whoever reads this shit.
So after two years of college, I've finally earned my Associate of Science in General Studies degree (with High Honors!), so hurrah for me. I plan on graduating with a Bachelor's in spring of 2018. In the meantime, I'm currently doing some undergraduate research with a Nutrition professor analyzing metabolic syndrome parameters in the college students who do the health assessment as part of gen ed. nutrition class. It's pretty fun working with and analyzing data.
If you hadn't noticed, I uploaded a poem simply titled Hello, and is the first original, non-Found piece I've writte
