Eeeeeeeeeevening. I'm always late to this party, but rarely 14 freaking pages late. Did I miss something crazy juicy that I didn't see skimming through?

Pokepoke, can I have wine AND beer? This was a double-fisting kind of week.

<div>Why pretend?</div>

Loopyseven

I skipped pages 3 through 9 = they were talking Lost and Fringe when I got back after I ate.

J - sorry you're both stressed.  If I was closer, I'd come help you pack tomorrow.  Do you at least have all the boxes you'll need?  Just keep plugging away at it and it'll get done.

pokepoke27

Thankful - If it's THAT kind of week you should probably meet my friend Captain Morgan ; )

ArynBaker

It's pretend because I'm just walking. I take three classes this summer but they don't offer graduations in August. 

ThankfulSnail

Must have been very interesting chatter.

Aryn, does your school do graduation before school is over? Is that why it's fake? My friend's graduation from grad school is a full 4 weeks before finals. Craziness!

[QUOTE]That's frustrating Stlrz... Maybe you can all leave earlyl tomorrow?
Posted by Loopyseven[/QUOTE]

Actually I can't because the office has to be covered until 5:00 and the other person who stays til 5 is taking vacation tomorrow afternoon.  I can go in an hour late if I want to, but I've got a huge project to finish up tomorrow so we'll see what kind of mood I'm in when I get up.

I would love a massage. Of my hand. 45 minutes of writing, ouch. I don't know how people wrote their final exams back in the day. Or write by hand that much at any time, really. I wish I was ambidextrous.

I am taking a break with some strawberries & cream.

J, just think it will be a new bed in a NEW house. A beautiful one at that.

<div>Oooh okay. I thought if you didn't get your degree until summer you walked the following year? I'm currently taking a long break from college so I'll be happy to get any kind of degree at this point. I'm excited for you though : )</div>

I did this. I had one summer class left and I had gotten so behind my last semester I had 21 papers to write at the time I walked. I knew it was fake in my head, but it still felt real and accomplish-ful at the time.

FI had to write his finals by hand last semester. He could barely move his hand for several days afterwards. I don't think he'll be doing that again this time.

Aryn, this is the first year where the spring graduates aren't walking out the door with their diplomas.  I think the students are pissed off more about Senior Week (week between finals and graduation where everyone pretty much hits the bars every night) being eliminated than they are about having to get their diplomas mailed to them.

angelstar975

Guys, remember that post a few days ago where the bride was complaining that her BM couldn't afford the dress but wouldn't let her make up the difference? Apparently it looks like the bridesmaid made a post about the same issue on WP. They're talking about it on SB right now... it very well could be MUD, but if not, that's kind of hilarious.

Edit - Actually, they talked about it on SB hours ago, I can't read time stamps apparently. But still.

<div>That's crazy about your friend's graduation. I'm still excited to walk even though I know it's fake too. It's nice to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I'm a 5th year senior and feel like I've been here forever. </div>

I was skimming through it last night. I'm like 90% sure that it's just the bride trying to get validation, but the fact that she posted it on a different board and added the random comments about TV weddings makes me wonder...

pokepoke27

I'm having trouble remembering that Angel - but I find it hard to believe that they're both complaining about the same thing and aren't going to see eachother complain about it...

MuSu, I took the bar exam by hand.  I will let you contemplate how awesome that was.

ArynBaker

Strlz, I'd probably be more upset about a cancelled seniors week too. Although, my university has mailed the diplomas for as long as I've been here so I guess I'm use to that idea. FI got an old rolled up syllabus when he walked across the stage. 

musicalsunlight

Does anyone else get weirdly relieved when a newer poster finally posts a pic of herself (or himself) and they look normal? I just thought of this since angel changed her pic. Until people do this, I generally have this in my head for them:

Eesh. That sounds terrible. :(

I assume they're all kwilliams, Musu.

pokepoke27

Ha! Should I post a pic of myself for you MuSu?

ArynBaker

Oh no! I'm still kwill! I don't think I've had my face in my sig yet. 

StephBeanWed61502

Oh kwilliams.  I feel like I'm constantly expecting overly-friendly new posters to turn out to be her.

PetalPockets2012

Musu - I'm more likely to pay attention to who they are and what they say. I feel like they are more likely to stick around.

Also, Angel looks so cute and definitely normal so that's a plus.

musicalsunlight

lol well you both kinda get a pass (and angel did too in this way) since I can see you have real faces in your avatar. Its more the newbs that are mysterious in their pictures for a while.

I totally said that the Nessie poster reminded me of her in the HO thread.

I always think it.
