One could say that I lacked some closure for the whole graudate school, teaching assisantship, wrote more papers in two years than I probably will for the rest of my life experience...
I cannot say that I lack closure anymore because two weeks ago Jake surprised me with a ceremony all to myself!
As I rounded the corner all I could see was my family and friends! I was shocked!
We all gathered in the backyard! There was ceremony with music and a speech and a list of the graduates...just me, of course!
I was officially hooded!
I even had a graduation cake!
The official graduation photos were taken, it was like I hadn't even skipped my ceremony.
I have to say that it was so worth skipping my ceremony to have such an absolutely wonderful surprise two years later!
A lovely & encouraging story to find whilst surfing the net - congratulations on your final & very personal graduation!
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome! Congratulations on being a master of the universe.
ReplyDeleteAnne, that is so wonderful. Jake is such a great guy to plan that for you. Your family (large extended one) looks beautiful as do you. I am so happy for you and hope to be a master some day soon too. Congratulations and give Jake a hug for me because that was just perfect.
