    GS's and Graduation

    I'm pretty excited guys. I get to ride my motorcycle to my graduation for my associates degree. I'm pretty excited about this because as a kid I had a friend who was always kind of a pessimist. As a kid I would talk about who I wanted to be with motorcycles and tattoos and going to college so I could own my own bookstore. She would always say I couldn't do those things. Well here I am at 19 with an awesome motorcycle, two tattoos with more planned and an associates degree with plans on going to University of Washington in the fall and after that it's time to pursue my bookstore dreams. And some of my motivation came from her telling me I couldn't! Look at me now, Hannah!

    Who the Hell are these people who can't let you do anything?
    Drunken idiot I worked for in the Navy said I can't fly, did everything he could to block it. What an ass hole.

    Congrats on the big accomplishments, the tats too if that's important to you.

      Thanks, tkent. I appreciate congratulations and your acceptance of the tattoos as something important to myself. Most people have a hard time with that.

        My cute little nice is going to be the tattooed lady at the circus one day I fear.

        Graduating from WSU next year I believe.

          The only thing that sounds not so good about that is the circus.

                They have not (yet) graduated to the circus, but both of my boys have worked on the carny circuit for several years now.

                  Are they really weird?
                  Carnies are weird.

                    A GS on campus has to be cool in its own right.

                      It is cool. There's two of us. My 850 and my buddy's 82 550L and they're cooler than all the other bikes.... Except maybe the ruckus....

                          One of them is a card-carrying member of Mensa.

                          Does that count?
