Graduate School

I have had requests for an update on my education. Well, so far everything is going great. I just finished my first semester of graduate school I was a bit overwhelmed for a time, but everything went well. I just received my grades yesterday and the results were good. I received an A+ in Politics and Public Administration Theory and I received an A in Budgeting for Non-Profits and Government Agenicies. I am really enjoying the MPA program it is a lot more fun than my undergrad studies were. It is much more hands on, and what I am learning I will actually use in the future. I have a break until January, that is when the next semester begins. For that semester I am taking Accounting for Non-Profits and Government Organizations and Administrative Organization and Behavior. For those of you who are interested, I will try to give semester by semester updates.

Karaoke Christmas

I have been incredibly lame on my blogging. I see every one's wonderful Christmas updates and I keep telling myself to get on the ball. Well, I finally finished my first semester of graduate school so I have a little more freedom. So here goes:

A couple weeks back we went to our very dear friends Christmas party. It is always a blast. I like to call it a karaoke Christmas because they have a spectacular karaoke system in their home and everyone gets involved. Here are some pictures from the evening.
