It is just such a giant accomplishment, and I think the whole crazy ceremony is important in recognizing that, to your school, your family and yourself. It is totally how you feel about it though, so if you don't feel like the experience would be enhanced by doing the whole hoopla then don't. I didn't care about high school or undergrad graduation ceremonies, but I know I will about vet school, because it took so much more hard work and dedication to get there. This is all just me though, I can't decide when is best for you! :)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13923653987423038878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5778028136477049673.post-91445327468561037222011-03-16T22:56:11.341-07:002011-03-16T22:56:11.341-07:00Does you comment change if I clarified that we are...Does you comment change if I clarified that we are still allowed to walk without a robe?Jaymehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06459764170058616882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5778028136477049673.post-73113871361153528202011-03-16T19:30:32.633-07:002011-03-16T19:30:32.633-07:00I say go for the robe. $80 now sucks, but in 10 ye...I say go for the robe. $80 now sucks, but in 10 years, when you think back to how hard you worked to get to where you are, you'll have that memory of the stupid ceremony in crazy robes, but it will mean something. Its not undergrad or high school... its a big deal! Donating to a charity is always a good thing, and maybe we should all do it on a regular basis and not on special occasions? There's always someone with less than us no matter how tight money is for us at any particular moment. <br /><br />A bit philosophical... but moral of the story... you might be glad you did the whole silly thing down the road even if it doesn't seem worth it now.<br /><br />:)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13923653987423038878noreply@blogger.com
