005. Graduate with a BA (Hons) in theology – completed!
What a day. I’d been dreading it for weeks due to the fact that I didn’t make many proper friends on my course so I knew it was going to be awkward and long and tiring. Thankfully, the day was well organised, so I was only sat on my own among the theology graduands for an hour or so. The ceremony was long, and pretty boring, but I’m glad I went – I think I would’ve regretted skipping my own graduation. It was also great for my parents, who were so proud of me. 🙂
Interestingly, I was the only person in the entire ceremony who had colourful hair. I was quite proud of that fact; my parents, not so much. At least they didn’t force me to dye it all brown as they were threatening too. Also, I kept in my lip piercing for the photos. 😀
So now that I am a graduate, I am faced with the dreaded job hunt, which is disheartening – but plough on we must.

Thank you for sharing you experience of the big day. I chose not to go to mine and instead of spending the day in a hot gown etc I had a day out with my hubby to Fishguard and with the money I would have spent on the gown I bought a bright apricot skirt with embroidery and a top to match and coincidentally wore that top y’day with my jeans. :o) Hope you loved the memory of your day as much as I do.
