Graduation Tomorrow

It's my graduation ceremony tomorrow, at 10 am in the Great Hall.

For the last two weeks I've been trying to get through to my friend Andrea about attending the ceremony. Finally got through tonight, but she was already committed to something else tomorrow. Ang was originally going to attend the graduation ceremony I was supposed to have back in 2002. Andrea's daughter was graduating at the same ceremony.

I didn't have the money to hire academic gear back then, so couldn't go, and really upset at the time. I had hoped to have her at this ceremony, finally, after all these years. But it ain't gonna happen. Kevin's coming to the ceremony, and that's good. I think he does appreciate what this means to me, as he's bought a few foods for celebration later on (and even some flowers to give me!).

Well, I've already pre-paid for morning tea after the event for three people - I guess I have a spare. If you're in Newcastle, want to come along?

Congratulations Laura!! Guess this is a case of all good things coming to those who wait.

I'll be in Sydney on the 3rd of May for my younger brother's graduation from UNSW. I'm so excited and can't wait as it will be the first time in five years that I will have been back to Sydney!!

Well done and congratulations again!!

Congratulations! Three weeks later and I'd be a lot closer to Newcastle, but for the time being I must cheer from the sidelines of the other edge of the Pacific.
