Mom made me a nummy, nummy cake as a happy graduation gift. :D 

My parents asked what I'd like for a real gift... if I skipped Lilies War (SCA event)  maybe I could go to Vegas with my bros, but I figured I'd let them squabble and pick up hookers in peace. And I want to celebrate my bday with Kitty and co at Lilies anyway.

Dad forgot I was graduating. O_o

Apparently no one was allowed to touch at graduation because we might all get the swine flu from it. And our president and staff thought it was ridiculous but admitted publically that it would be dreadful pr to have anyone catch it. Or think they caught it. But it was still stupid, in their opinion so plz could the bearcats stop whining?

A couple of my besties didn't graduate thanks to catalogue mess-ups or unexpectedly bad grades. :X  I feel bad because if it hadn't been for flunking that class last spring (the nightmare one where the teacher never said anything until after the final) I would likely have graduated a year ago... and I really should have graduated in fall anyway but I felt like taking an independent study was not going to help my language skills that much.

I miss CollegeTown already. I hope this stops quickly or I'll be convincing myself that grad school is totes an option and should be attempted. Let us all hope that Summer makes it through the Civil Service stuff or she'll so be a grad schooler FOREVER.

I'm done. Graduated.
...

It hasn't sunken in yet. Of course maybe I'm not graduated and I flunked a class and I'll never be graduated and I'll be banished to Siberia by my family.

No, they wouldn't be that nice. Rural Arkansas. They'd banish me there.

At least last night kind of rocked. Went to Dark&Dirty, gave up because no one was there. Hit the Beer Garden but it was too packed to move. Called Brutus and he was chilling in the Grad Student-Type Bar, so we headed there. Then I ended up flirting with a boy with a Thundercats shirt on. He was a history major too. Oh yeah. I'm such a sucker for that combo. Plus? Pretty eyes. And he was conversant in historical military tactics. Eesh.

Other than that, I'm still in recovery. I drank waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much last night. Even for me. O.o  But then, hey, it was graduation. Gotta do it right. At least I didn't have to walk across the stage like Kitty did. She was still just as almost-drunk as I was but she had to act sober. Heh. Glad my family is more understanding in these things, at least.
