Graduation = Celebration :)
Yay! I finally have my honours and my law degree.
After six years I now have two more additional certificates saying that I have some degrees and I also have some nice photographs of me in different hoods :)
The best thing about graduation is finally feeling that I finished something that I started a long time ago and also to see my family happy of what I have achieved.
What next on the study line up? Law Profs...(!!!)

Achievement
What is it?
Achievement:
"1. The act of accomplishing or finishing.
2. Something accomplished successfully, especially by means of exertion, skill, practice, or perseverance."
To me achievement is more than #1 above. It's about knowing that you've been successful because you've put effort and enjoyed the work. I've been working for 11 weeks and now with the 12th week coming, I'll be graduating!
It feels like such a long time ago since I've been studying yet it was only a few months. With graduation actually happening months after the last class, what does it really mean? To me it means that I've finally accomplished what I went to university for, call it ending a chapter of study (for now). So I've achieved goals set years ago, then what is the new chapter? I've always had my short/medium/long term goals - changing them as life changes... so what's changed?
...I'm not studying anymore - although I'll be doing Profs in a few weeks time
...I have more time - or do I?
...plus a whole raft of other things
Come Wednesday, it'd be time to walk downtown and be happy that I've done what I set out to do.
I believe it's time to take on a few more new challenges
