Small Accomplishments

After 2 years and change of schooling, and several months thereafter of dealing with bureaucratic slip-ups, a Master's Degree is finally hanging on the wall of my office in a nice oak frame.

Now to just get my Bachelor's up here...

Congrats boy, it's always nice to hang up probably the most expensive piece(s) of paper you'll ever own. It's a great way to signify to others how much $$$ you blew on a college education. It would be nice if schools would include a handy inflation chart to determine the value of your degree against say an individual who graduated 10 years ago. I guess they do with listing the day you graduated... so many of the people I knew that graduated the year we did from Tech are very sucessful as Starbuck managers and Target employees... haha.

you're kidding about the starbucks right? Well, okay, Elena I thought was opening up a carwash despite having a CS degree (but she hated her job)...

I can figure out what the value of the master's degree was though, since I switched jobs once I got it. It paid for itself in 1 year!

I haven't put mine up...but then again, I just moved.
