Awesome surprise of the day

[alee_grrl]

I finally got my diploma in the mail today. Vermont Law doesn't have a December graduation, which is why I was allowed to walk last May. Back in May I got an empty envelope but got to participate in all the pomp and circumstance. I finished my classes in December and officially graduated at the end of January. Today I got my diploma.

I was marveling at the pretty certificate when I noticed a little something unexpected.

I graduated CUM LAUDE.

Seriously! My GPA was just below the cut-off for honors at the end of May, and I guess my last semester grades were enough to push me over. It was totally unexpected and I just....am completely and totally out of words.

Thank you! (That icon is made of win, btw.)

I am so totally bemused right now. I've had to go back and double check that I read the diploma correctly a couple of times. :D

You can't beat a happy Hugh Jackman. *g*

And I bet you get a new thrill every time you double-check and it is confirmed that you are just made of awesomeness and kittens and rainbows! *g*
