Class of 2007

Class of 2007, originally uploaded by reasonenoughtocelebrate.

You know you're a graduate of 2007 when the entire slew of undergrads are on the floor at graduation texting/calling their parents from their cellphones so they can find them in the audience.

I'm not going to lie. I pretty much texted throughout the entire ceremony. With all the names that had to be called out at the Social & Behavioral Sciences graduation... I needed something to keep my mind off of everything that was happening.

I sent picture messages to friends and family, texted with Matt who was somewhat-close to me in the audience and just basically acted like everyone else in the audience acted -- as if this really wasn't a huge step in our lives. I think we're all in denial -- hell, most of the journalism kids I know are jobless. We're graduating to our parents couches, basically.

Not going to lie, I'm a semi-emotional wreck this week, as I'm sure many people are.
