I have to admit that I have been a little bit overwhelmed of keeping up with all my blogs. If you go to my profile, you will see I have about 7 blogs on blogger (I try to keep them separate; if only I can convert all of them into different categories—the kind you see with CMS—and make them into different tabs on my website). Besides, I have two on tumblr, two on wordpress and one on yahoo. None of these listed has been updated the whole semester! Boo!
Anyways, I am graduating in more than a week.
9 days 18 hours and 56 minutes to be exact (Yes, I put it on my widget; you know how nerdy I am)
I am not too excited. More of an empty and confusing feeling. Can we just not talk about graduation in this blog post?
Yesterday, just like any other days, I went to school and decided I would go to work because I have a few projects that need to be sent to the printer. The day went by just as normal as it could be, or worse. No exciting e-mails, no new blogposts, nothing exciting. I didn’t even bother to get on Facebook and turned off all of my social medias. Well, I texted my friends for dinner but got no respond so I figured it was a sign for me to stay focus on working.
I got home around 5:00 PM and thought I would go check my Facebook chat to see what my friends are up to. I have not seen any of them since last Friday because they all live off campus and I was on the RA on duty that weekend. Here is my conversation with Ann Kim, one of my best friends at school and my Asian twin on campus:
- Ann: Annie, where have you been???? YOU MISSED IT
- Me: What? Where? When? What happened?
- Ann: You won!!! You should have come to the Award Convocation
- Me: Say what???
- Ann: You got the award for the Graphic Design Department
- Me: Why? (Oops! I was super confused you can tell!) What exactly is it?
- Ann: You got the biggest award
So as you can tell, suddenly my boring Tuesday became one of the biggest event in my entire college life and I missed it…or the ceremony. I am not complaining though. In fact, I was so shocked that I got it. It is not until today do I feel that I really received the award. I am greatly honored to be the recipient of the Artemisia Award 2010 from the Graphic Design Department of Peace College.
It means a lot to me because I am glad that my help to the design community is making an impact that it gets noticed! Oh, I still cannot put this into words so I might come back to this post and write.
Normally I don’t comment on your posts but I wanted to let you know I have placed a link to your page on my blog. I was thinking that maybe you could benefit from my visitors since we have somewhat similar pages.

Its like you read my mind! You appear to know a lot about this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you could do with some pics to drive the message home a little bit, but instead of that, this is wonderful blog. A fantastic read. I will certainly be back.
I really enjoyed your article. Aside from that I like to read your blog, Its great that not everybody is just posting a heap of nonsense now a days!
This was actually an interesting matter, I am very fortunate to be able to come to your weblog and I will bookmark this page so that I could come back another time.
Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point. You definitely know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting videos to your weblog when you could be giving us something informative to read?
Sweet internet site , super style and design , very clean and employ pleasant. -Isis
