Masters

As of 6pm or so tonight, I had finished my last presentation of graduate school. Judging from the professor's positive comments, I now, for all intents and purposes, have a Master's Degree in Secondary Education.

My final project ended up being about 100 pages, which I had to condense into one 15-minute presentation. I did it, barely, talking just a little bit too fast at the end.

Now, I'm going to try to sleep for at least 6 or 7 hours tonight. It's been a while.

Anyhow, phew... this is a relief.

Tomorrow, I have been selected at random to proctor the Biology HSA, which I'll be doing instead of attending my graduation. It's okay, I didn't really want to go anyway (though I heard it was a free day off... I never really investigated it.)

Per the union contract, you do get a day for your own graduation that doesn't have to count against sick or personal time. Sometimes you can negotiate to take it later (not the actual day)...

I have selected you at random to be my hero. When I don't feel like grading papers, I think about how hard you work and I am shamed into working.

Congratulations! Does this come with a bigger fatter paycheck too? To buy that house with?

This is probably the only time in my life when I'll get a (nearly) 20% raise!
