on the occasion of my sister's graduation

After all, not everyone can graduate with honours, or with distinction -- and most of them graduate with far more interesting things than that

I choked up reading this. I... I kind of want to paste it up in my office. Thanks for sharing this with your sister, and with us.

Thanks! I haven't actually shared it with my sister yet, but that's because she's lying next to me on this hotel room bed, snoring away. Snoring people don't deserve poems!
