I am a grad-u-ate...lol

It isn't "official" (meaning I don't have my diploma) but I checked my final grades for the semester and ended the term with a B+ and an A-.  So glad to be done!!

(on a related note, am I being a baby to be sad that no one in my family  has made a congratulations or even acted like it is a big deal?....I wish I wasn't so sensitive, but I knew heading into my final semester that I would be sad my mom and dad were not here to share it...and a main reason why I chose not to participate in the graduation ceremony in May - I honestly didn't know anyone (other than Don who has to be there for work anyway) who would come.

Congratulations!!! I'm sorry your family isn't acting proud but I'm sure they are. What a great accomplishment!

I kind of think you should go to the ceremony if you can. Mike wasn't going to go to his phd ceremony and was very happy he did in the end. I think you should celebrate it even if by yourself. It's a wonderful achievement!

CONGRATULATIONS, Liz!!!! And I have to agree with Sonya-I would go ahead and go to the ceremony!! I wasn't going to go to my graduate one either, but in the end, I was really glad I did-I worked my tail off for that degree!!!! You have worked hard-you should go to be celebrated, even if you and Don are the only ones there!

And yay for your new gifts from Don!!!!
