Yeah! I have completely finished the MS-MOT program and we had commencement last Friday. I hadn't been to a college commencement since Ken's back when I was about three so it was kind of fun.
Margaret, Kiwi, and Ian were there to observe the momentous occassion which wasn't even all that long. Of course, it wasn't too long because we MOT-ers didn't stick around for the Master of Arts graduates or the PhDs---we left right after the Master of Science grads walked across the stage and we bee-lined it to Sally's for a beer.
The whole thing was quite nice. The MOT program had an extremely good turnout (32 out of 33 at commencement and 33 out of 33 for the dinner reception) and the reception was really nice. Mike Siegler (part of my study group) was voted to speak and he did a really nice job. I had a wee-bit too much wine, but heck...how many times does one graduate with a Masters?
I arrived at work this morning to find that my co-workers had decorated my office door to celebrate and commemorate my graduation--although I must admit that as I was walking up to the door I mistook the little graduate cap decorations for bats and couldn't figure out why they had decorated my door with bats. Just goes to show that a Master's degree is no guarantee of higher intelligence.

Well done!
I wonder if the boys in our family have recognized that it is only the girls who have post-grad degrees?!
Or if they have noticed that it is only the girls in the family who learned how to use power tools?!
Very lovely door!
Yes, I forgot about the uncanny likeness of your Wii Mii.
Is it just my imagination, or were you as genuinely happy as you appear to be in your graduation photos?
