We were so proud. BFL especially. To think, BFL took me to school on my first day. And yesterday he beamed with much pride sitting in the stalls watching me graduate.
What a milestone! I have to admit, I have been feeling somewhat low for a while. Not getting any headway in finding a job and all. It was only when one of the gown people helped me put on my gown (designed apparently by Vivienne Westwood) that I finally felt that swelling sense of pride. I did it!
And they mentioned the merit too. 'The following student graduates with Merit in Masters of Research in Gerontology ...'
How far I've come since ...
Quoted BFL when he was introduced to my professors, 'she got more than what she bargained for when she started this course ...' And I wouldn't have it any other way ...! He's the best thing that's happened and being here on this course enabled (not directly though) to live them all. And that, invariably brings me to the next topic of the following blog ... how everything begins with thoughts. And things in life, events, people, timing, opportunities simply fall into place somehow helping you along your path.
