Worth mentioning

[lhexa]

My plan was to wait until the biannual update to mention this, but I think it's important enough to announce early. I graduated last weekend from UT Dallas, with a degree in physics, summa cum laude. I walked with a copy of Walden tucked into the front of my pants, under the gown.

I'm not sure why I'm so proud of that last part.

You should be proud of all of it. ...Especially the last part.

*grins* The ragged leather jacket in an arena full of business casual the day before was a nice idiosyncrasy, too. Thanks, though!

I'm sorry that I was too scatterbrained to comment when you mentioned this elsethread ... but many congratulations!

A fantastic achievement, and definitely one to be proud of. If you get a chance, enjoy the summer -- it's likely to be your last sustained burst of freedom in a while. :)

Thanks muchly. And I'm becoming a graduate student, so presumably the unbalanced schedule will continue for years more. :)

*chuckles* Well... at least you did something out of the ordinary eh?

[lhexa.livejournal.com]

Damn right. Something worth mentioning actually happened at my ceremony! :P

My thoughts exactly should be proud regardless... with great/highest honor definitely impressed. Congratulations... hope you get where you want to for your graduate degree(s). :)

Thanks, Dook. I didn't get into my top choice, but I was still admitted to a very good graduate school.

Congrats! Hope your grad gift was adequate.

*smiles* Considering you were the only person who talked me into receiving one, yes, it was adequate.
