While I didn't really walk or attend the ceremony, my time for the graduation was 5:00 pm, so that means I just graduated from college. I am receiving a Bachelors Degree in History and Physical Education from Central Michigan University. I guess I get the piece of paper in the mail in a week or so. So maybe it took 8 years (there was a 3 and a half year break in there) and it isn't the entire degree I was originally scheduled to get, but life changes and I am happy either way.

I know it is a little lame, but thought I would share with you folks :tu

Not lame. That's awesome. Especially the fact that you finished after taking the break. Going back is the hardest part.

Congrats

Not lame bro..Congrats..I didn't go to my college graduation either..I didn't want to sit in an auditorium for 3 hours and watch people with P.H.Ds get their names called while the Masters and Bachelors degrees sat and was spoken to by some guy we don't care about or know. :D

Good job, A! It's rare indeed for someone to finish after stopping for a few years. You are to be commended for getting your degree- surely it will help you in your future! CU on the 31st! I'll bring you a special smoke- like a Cremosa or something- as a celebratory belated gift.
