I just graduated from College!!! |
|
Well, the 2nd time, I already have my Associate's. :P
Today I got my B.A., Summa Cum Laude, with Distinction in Economics! :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
I got to sit with all (and I do mean all) of my Economics buddies that I've been in classes with for the past 3 years, which was awesome. We all got to walk across the stage in a line, which I think our Profs liked. :)
We got poured on during the first ceremony, listened to John Kerry talk for what felt like an eternity, but it was great! I am DONE! Whew!
:woohoo:
And now, let the celebrations begin! I've got a bottle of wine, Sniffa's making me Chicken Parmesan for dinner, and tomorrow is the first Graduation party to attend.
:hi:

8. Oh hell no...We got nicely drenched. |

Although, we mysteriously found umbrellas for me and my friends, and then rain ponchos were handed out. :)

I can't believe you accomplished all of that on top of everything you've been dealing with on the personal front. I'm so very proud of you!
:woohoo:
To mark this wonderful occasion, I think Sniffa should draw a picture of you drinking and him cooking and then post it in the lounge...toots and all. :D
