When you get your doctorate you are then a doctor. I guess that makes me a BACHELOR!!! Woot Woot! Saturday was my college graduation!
As the Shawnee State University graduates of 2010 proceeded down the steps, we began to feel sprinkles and by the time we filed in front of our seats it was raining.

Give or take. Pretty sweet. I was disappointed that I didn't get to walk the stage, but it is what it is.
We did manage to get some pictures luckily.
So there you have it.
