I'm nervous, but relieved at the same time. I'm just glad I was able to get through these four years, because I really believed I wasn't going to make it (mainly due to the high tuition). Anyways, my family is coming to support me, and another chapter of my life comes to a close.

EDIT: It's finally over!

You aren't anything special until you get a Master's.

Congratulations!

And in regards to the master's comment, I don't wanna be anything special, I just want to get my bachelor's as well! I changed majors though, so it will be a while.

... Don't be. Just remember to shut out everything in your mind but that long-coveted degree that's being held out in front of you as you walk forward upon your name being called, ... and you shouldn't trip and make a fool of yourself in front of thousands of people. ^_^

Now, you may feel really strange for the first few weeks after graduation day because you are no longer a student as you have been for so long. ... DON'T PANIC; it is just your taking that next to the last step into full manhood.

Sarah's Knight gives you his full congratulations on your achievement. It isn't just any human being who has the will to make it that far when it comes to education. Never mind what ShadowFox says.

QFT

See? What did I tell ya? As I have said else-where... here in a few months, you'll sit back one evening and notice how much better you are enjoying yourself without the tyrrany of college bearring down on you.

Actually, are me and SK the only college graduates at the Mag?

I really do thank you for the support, guys. I really appreciate it.

I had a little graduation rehearsal today out in Hopwood, and the announcer said that after looking at some of our graduation requirements, "most of you will get diplomas." As for the rest, they'll be getting a piece of paper that says they need to complete a certain class or classes during the summer time, which really really blows.

Thankfully, I believe I'm not in that ship with the latter group. I got my grades yesterday, and managed a 3.34, and a final cumulative GPA of 3.26. Tomorrow is that day, and I am actually pretty hyped for it. More details later.

I enjoy college, actually, despite the flaws. And it's not part of your post, but SK's... I don't see how finishing college is the last step into full manhood. Manhood can be achieved well before then.

Well, I've graduated.

It was a very painful process. Why? For one, standing up for a long period of time hurt my feet. Secondly, they had me sitting in this little ass chair, which I was afraid was going to break. Thirdly...well, I'll be missing a whole lot of friends and professors in my four years at the college. I wish I had pictures, but the film hasn't been developed yet, so I'll post some later. I got my degree though. It feel so...satisfying. I thank all you Magonians for your support. We did it, Adrian!

*raises fist*
