I've never realized how much stuff I had until I actually packed it all up. I loaded my whole car and the back of a truck. I did have a futon and a bed frame and bed along with a desk, but it was pretty overwhelming to pack it all for the last big move.
I'm back in so cal and still not used to the weather. Went to my friend's commencement which took place in the noon sun (whose power I've completely underestimated), and I got sunburned on my shoulders. Forgot to put SPF there! Cher graduated in Health Sciences and will most likely go into nursing.
I'm quite taken aback by the lovely graduation presents I've been receiving, all of which are extremely generous. Remember when I wrote about my visit to Napa with Stacy? There, I mentioned an amazing bottle of wine: the Rubicon 2005. Auntie Fely, a devoted reader ever since my Paris blog, sent me a bottle!!! Thanks so much Auntie! I'm saving it for a while, and you need to be here when it's opened! I just want to graduate every year if I could for the presents.
The grad party Mom is planning for me is underway, also a huge deal. She invited a lot of people and likened it to a "wedding". It's going to be that huge. I usually don't care for huge shindigs, but I'm actually excited for this because I can make a proper Oscar-like speech after dinner and thank people. God, I forgot to tell you how horrible my speech at the Cinema department party was. What a disaster. I hadn't eaten, and the only thing I had in my stomach was wine. Yikes. Anyway, I'm going to make a better speech.
So far, post-life grad is pretty...chill. I've been unpacking, cleaning, fixing things, and just trying to put everything in order because I can't function or work if my room is in a disarray. No word from any internships, but I might sign up for this entertainment workshop thingy which I hope opens some doors or gets to let me peek at doors at least. Will head to Cinegear next week to get some free film magazines and maybe some info on internships there. It's a Paramount Studios which I'm excited about.

Everything is connected, and everything matters. There's not an atom in our bodies that has not been forged in the furnace of the sun. Now isn't that cool?

You are welcome Elaine! You don't have to wait for me to open the bottle. I think you will know when you're in celebratory mood... with some bffs maybe or with your Kuya and Kat or even with my old buddies..who? Your mom and dad of course! ..or with someone special! Just drink up and enjoy. You deserve it!
Thanks again, Auntie! I feel like saving it though, and I read that it gets better with age, but it will definitely be open for a good reason!
