Graduation
So the third time i successfully graduate...yet I never managed to make it up on stage...sometimes for reasons outside of my control, others not.

High School - Because I went to a Catholic school i HAD to take Religion every year, but the Ontario Gov't didnt recognize OAC Religion as a credit course and that spot fit perfectly into a 2nd Co-op...result? I wasn't allowed to graduate on stage...didnt really care much.

College - Didn't really feel like an accomplishment. It was only a 2-year program and I dropped out of my original program (TV)

University - This one actually meant something. It was mostly tough and required alot of balancing of time. I even completed some courses while in India. This time I can't because the ceremony is right when we have a pre-planned trip. Convenient.

I guess in the end it doesn't matter, there's already a spot waiting for my paper on the wall in the office and ive already updated my resume as a graduate, but to NEVER go through the Graduation process feels like i've been cheaped out. I also feel like I let my parents down because my mom said she wanted to go to a graduation since all my other siblings didn't complete their education or simply graduated throgh another means...
