I'm leaving ... in a U-Haul ...

Friday, December 23, 2005 by Daren Darrow

Well I'm officially an alumnus (last Saturday). I've moved out of my dorm and way from Stillwater (Today) and will be leaving for Fremont, Calif., on Monday (ugg driving to California)

I'm going to miss everyone but I'm certain we will all keep in touch.

Holy Crap

LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- John Spencer, who played a tough and dedicated politico on "The West Wing" who survived a serious illness to run for vice president, died of a heart attack Friday. He was 58.

Well today has been busy. I had my last final at 8 a.m., which I made a C on and have a C in that class (I should have an A). I've e-mailed the professor because I want to contest the grade.

We went to OKC after my final to pick Mikel's dad up from the airport and then we went to a few malls to do some holiday shopping.

Now I was exhausted until I checked my e-mail. I'M OFFICIALLY EMPLOYED BY ANG NEWSPAPERS! I call the guy tomorrow to work out the details. I'm getting the pay that I wanted and the newspaper I wanted, The Argus. yay.

Now I get to try and go to bed soon and get up at 7 a.m. to do my last four hours of work at the Stout Desk.

Ok, hopefully for the last time I have a new photo gallery. This includes all the photos I've had up before and perhaps some new ones.

It's at http://www.vacantsouls.com/gallery/

I have also added a Web links section on the left sidebar with a link to it.

Cheers!

Quote of the day

"I went to the park and saw this kid flying a kite. The kid was really excited. I don't know why, that's what they're supposed to do. Now if he had had a chair on the other end of that string, I would have been impressed." - Mitch Hedberg

The beginning of the end

by Daren Darrow

Today I:


  • Turned in my last Public Affairs Reporting article/last project of my college career
  • Had my last class of my college career
  • Took the first, of the last, of my finals of my college career


It feels very good. A little sureal, but good.

Yesterday I had yet another phone interview for my job with ANG Newspapers in the San Francisco bay area. I got my salary increased by nearly $2,000 per year (I'm sure I could have asked for more too).

We also got our apartment in Fremont, Cali., and reserved for our U-Haul for the move. It is almost over. I just have to take two finals this week and then graduate on Saturday.

My graduation is Saturday, Dec. 17 at 1:30 p.m. at Gallager/Iba if anyone wants to come (Mikel's is the same day and place but at 10:30 a.m.)

We leave for California on Dec. 27, but will be in the state till then.

Pee shy?
