Graduation!

[elwen]

I have ridiculously little idea just exactly what is going to happen... except that I have to be there an hour early so they can wrangle us all into robes. Is it really that complicated?

Well, how complicated did the doctoral gown and tam turn out to be?

Congratulations, by the way. :)

Three years already? I still remember our outing to sleepy Palo Alto proper. Doesn't seem that long ago...

Ah, JDs don't get a tam, apparently, just the robe and hood. Which were complicated enough. Mainly it's tricky to figure out how to keep the hood from choking you (may be slightly easier as a guy with a shirt button to hook it to) and to get it to hang right in the back.

As for congratulations... this cartoon (http://courtoons.wordpress.com/2009/05/07/grad/) kind of says it all. And they just announced huge changes in the format of the multistate questions, too. ...but thanks anyway. ^^

And I totally still remember our aimless wandering through Palo Alto. How many more times I was to walk those streets! And how much turnover there has been of shops, though I didn't really note what was there that time. But the gelato place is still around. :D

My jaw still drops when I try to count up how many years I've known you AGNP people or my high school friends. More than ten years! Man.

Well, my congratulations are in order anyhow! The path of success is measured in countless steps, and graduations are arguably excellent milestones.

Time does sure pass, doesn't it? I think it's amazing that we're still walking the paths we set ourselves on years ago.

Good luck with the bar, although I believe luck has little to do with your success in that endeavor.
