Mission Success


After four years of hard work, relentless fun, and a fair amount of procrastination I graduated from University of Puget Sound today with a B.A. in English with an emphasis on Creative Writing.

I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to start this post, but it seems I can't come up with anything better than this, which does nothing to convey the amount of accomplishment I feel as I look at who I am today compared to the shy, introverted, wimp of a kid. During the last four years I've made more friends than the other 18 combined, asked a girl out on my first date, and nearly died. It has been a tremendous experience that has shaped me into a person far greater than I once was. I hope to continue this trend for the rest of my life, but today I'm taking a break from self-improvement to enjoy what I have become.

Posts will be sporadic for the next week or two as I pack-up and get re-settled, but after that expect me to far more prolific than I ever was before.

Congratulations! I like hearing about my friends and acquaintances flourishing.

Although, I think it's sad how self-loathing you are about your past self...I'm sure you were still an awesome person back then.

I am excited about this new "prolific" Cory. What's your next move into self-improvement?
