I have finally reached my last semester of college. It’s been a long time coming. Six and a half years with a two year hiatus in the middle. Since returning to PBA’s online program last fall, I’ve thought that I would just skip the whole commencement thing. As I have gotten closer, I’ve thought about it more and more. Personally, I don’t think it matters all that much to me, but my mom has been vocal about her feelings and really wants me to do it. I honestly think Louie doesn’t want me to do it. Part of me thinks he doesn’t really see what I am doing as real school, therefore why would I participate in a real graduation. My biggest issue is having to sit through a long ceremony with the kids. Obviously they wouldn’t be sitting with me so I know my family would have to deal with them and since it’s really not all that important to me I don’t know what to do.
I’d like it if you could share your thoughts with me. Tell me what you would do in my situation. Consider your graduation day, but add 2 toddlers to it… is it worth it?

you have to do it. I didn’t really want to do it but when you do it makes you feel like, wait a minute I really did accomplish something!
