Graduating!

This Saturday I will finally be graduating from college (a big hurrah from me). So next I'll be working at a job that I have lined up at a nearby hospital. I am going to be working as a baccalaureate degree nurse, so I'm sure it will be interesting. A few years from now, though, I'll probably be back in school getting an advanced degree, so this is merely a temporary reprieve from school (after all, when are us nurses ever done with learning )

Congrats! Especially for sticking it out! I never really completed and now I'm back in. Finals is next week for me.

Do an embarrassing gamer pose as you accept your diploma and post it here.

No I'm joking. That would be embarrassing on a much wider scale in front of many more.

When my wife and I were married, after I "kissed the bride," I turned to the "crowd" and said I WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I did, too.

Good job on getting through school, Lier!!!! How about lending your pal Zoidberg a few bucks mister moneybags? :3

You should post a video of that in the embarrassing photo thread. But I'd like to think of these not as embarrassing, but as awesome.

LOL I don't have our wedding on video, my wife is lucky I went at all rofl. I don't do so well with family socials. UGH Smoked a jibber before to relax, boy was that a good call. 45 minute ceremony and 2 hours of wooing relatives and strangers in exchange for money and I was outta there.

Sorry ZeldAnTales, despite having a job I wouldn't classify myself as a mister moneybags. Good Futurama reference though.

The graduation went smoothly, although it was incredibly boring. I personally like my family gatherings, so I'm looking forward to the wedding reception. Let's just say my family is interesting... especially when they drink.

My family is Mormon. I think you understand now.

Ahh, that makes more sense.

LOL not dis-ing them or their lifestyle, just not for me. :3
I do enjoy their company from time to time, but large groups, whether relative or not, make me uncomfortable. Personal tick. I know, how am I in a band? Wouldn't you like to know...

You're in the right place then. My family is Mormon also. A few others here I know have Mormon families also but it's not my place to reveal. I'll let them if they choose to.

So I'm guessing you're in a band because you took the Trent Reznor route?

Damn you called it. 1995 NIN's song Heresy is heard for the first time and I knew then Mormon-ism wasn't for me! lol

Wow, what a coincidence!!

that's an awesome album. I was once told (never looked it up myself) that trent was a mormon and when on his mission he snapped and painted his garments black and burned them, and took off.

Hahahaha yeah its not true, he isn't wasn't Mormon, he was Lutheran if memory serves. Marilyn Manson is also rumored to have been Mormon but its also not true.

I had a mission leader tell me once that they tell the missionaries to say that about whatever band the teen is listening to, to encourage enrollment in their syndicate. LOL I don't see that as being too far off, either.

I blame this story on Dirty B. Come back Dirty and tell us who told you the Trent story! I might have to find him so he can drop by with his thoughts.
