As some of you may know (or may have read here) I will be graduating with my Masters of Divnity degree from Bethany Theological Seminary tomorrow, May 3rd. In honor of that (and because I won’t be using my computer tomorrow because of Shutdown Day) today’s Friday5 is about my graduation. Here are 5 reasons I’m glad that I’m graduating tomorrow.
- After 22 years I will finally be done with school. For a while at least.
- From now on I will be able to buy books because I like them, not because they’re required for class.
- Two words: Gainful Employment.
- I will finally have a bit more regularity to my daily schedule. Hopefully.
- Because it’s a great excuse to see family and friends I haven’t seen for a while.
It’s been a great three years here at Bethany, and there are definitely some things I will miss about being in school. However, I must admit that I’m pretty excited to be done and get out into the “real world.” See you there!
Any other graduates out there? Any thoughts on graduation in general? Feel free to share in the comments.
