Yay, had my convocation today! I'm bloody tired but I'm officially done school forever. :-D
I thought there would be more speeches, but only the guest receiving the honourary degree, the President of the university, and the Chancellor spoke. Funny thing about the President of the university, this is probably the only time any of the students get to see him in person. Usually he's too busy accepting cheques from people on the university's behalf. So he had a boring speech and just sat there for the rest of the ceremony. I didn't even get to shake his hand. But I have my degree and all is good. I majored in General Humanities and now I never ever have to explain what my major is to people. It's so obscure and useless that it was just me and one other girl who received BAs in General Humanities.
So bye-bye U of C. It was nice knowing you but you're never getting your hands on my money again. ;-)
