    It's that time of year again. People graduating school and either moving to higher education or facing the world. I am one of those who graduated College (Actually did it in December but might as well be considered Class of 2009) and I wanted to take the time to congratulate my fellow Class of 2009 graduates during this time of year. Hope you all find success in your life endeavors, or at least a job since even that is hard to come by these days. :)

    My wife graduates next Saturday with a B.S. in Psychology and a B.S. in Sociology. It's been a long five years and next up is grad school starting in September. But I'm proud of her. Not many people in their 50s go to college for the first time.

    Congrats to the Class of 2009! :beer:

    I can't believe it's been over four years since I graduated college myself! I actually wish I was back in High School again going to college..those were the good ole days! But congrats to the grads of 2009! I know one of my neighbor's daughters graduated High School last Friday and is going to college in the fall. ;)

    I still have one more year of high school. Still, I tip my hat to the class of '09. Many fantastic people that I know are graduating in a few weeks. I'll miss them dearly. But, c'est la vie. Life must go on! :)

    The high school graduating classes of 2009 were not alive (unless it took them more than 12 years to go through 12 grades) when the following movies came out -- Home Alone, Total Recall, Kindergarten Cop, Ghost, Pretty Woman, The Hunt For Red October, Dances With Wolves, Dick Tracy, Die Hard 2, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

    In some cases they were lucky.

    I'll be graduating Thursday from Ryerson University of Toronto with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Performance Production, which is a bunch of fancy words for everything backstage at theatre.

    I'm glad to say the last four years have shaped me and have changed me for the better.

    My second oldest son graduated yesterday. Had an awesome day of fun at various parties, and more fun today at another party.... before he broke his clavicle while playing broomball. :(

    He's okay. I suppose the rest of us are as well, but man he's going to be sore for awhile.

    Finished my undergraduate degree in cinema/politics a few weeks ago. The real world for a year before I go back to the world of the ivory tower and start work on a Masters?

    ^ My soul was stolen by statistics, theres nothing left to crush.

    Its my last day of my work placement today. Which marks the end of my two year diploma program (aside from one 6 week course starting monday Im not to keen on discussing).

    I still intend on taking another two years, but this diploma program is definitely a milestone for me.
