Sorry it's been so long since the last update... it's been a pretty crazy week. I finally graduated on Thursday, February 24, so now I'm officially a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) with Distinction and all that good stuff, and I have a pretty diploma to hang on the wall. The ceremony was nice and the speaker was actually interesting, but the best part of the whole day was getting to see my family for a few hours. I think they're insane for coming up to see me the way they did... my uncle John flew in from Atlanta on Wednesday night after work, they all drove from Cleveland to Guelph on Thursday morning to see the ceremony, and afterward turned around and drove all the way back. Uncle John flew back to Atlanta on Friday morning and went back to work that night. Like I said, insane. But it was fantastic to see them.

After the requisite graduation party at the Pennywhistle, I went back to work Friday and I've been working my normal hours ever since (i.e., lots). I also went to my friend Nat's Oscar party Sunday night, but I'm not going to say anything about the Oscars here because Go Fug Yourself and Manolo the Shoeblogger said it way better than I could. Suffice it to say that there was lots of opportunity for red carpet fashion snark.

At the end of next week, I'm heading down to Ithaca for the Admitted Students Day at Cornell and to start organizing my life down there. I'm trying not to stress out too much about moving, since I still have five months to deal with everything, but the fact remains that moving is a pain in the ass and moving internationally is an even bigger pain in the ass. At least I'll have the whole summer off from school, which I haven't had since finishing grade 12!
