Graduation Picture Time!

I've FINALLY uploaded my graduation pics! I wasn't going to do it until I officially presented my thesis, but maybe by expecting it will happen by posting early, I'll be more motivated! Needless to say, graduation 2005 was anti-exciting, but I sort of expected that. Matt, Chris and I would have none of it, though! We made it fun by frequently holding up the line so that we could take pictures of our bad selves.

Half of Chris, some weird guy, Me, and Matt.

GRADUATION 2005 Program: Stand around for an hour in a hot fieldhouse so we can pretend to put you in alphabetical order just to piss you off, and make it seem that you won't be able to sit with your friends. Walk, herd-style, to the auditorium looking forward only please. DO NOT stray! Sit far away from the stage so you are not able to see the speaker or here anything at all. Stand up once when your SCHOOL is called along with the rest of the crowd. Do what you're told, and then please get out of our way. And don't forget to send your generous contributions to the Alumni Association!

Well, in their defense, there were 7000 graduates that day.

Eric and Patty came down and met me afterwards! We went for Margaritas (Eric trying to get us drunk) and then we had yuuuummmmyy Thai food and had a blast! Patty knew just what to order since she's been to Thailand.

So there you have it: Sammy Learned Real Good Then Up And Gradieated!
