Hum. Graduated yesterday. But I think it really won't really hit me until I start my jobs. Or maybe when law student blogs start up with all the school talk in the fall. Or maybe when I get sworn in (with luck, October or so).
It was a pretty good day. After graduation, they had a little luncheon, which was pleasant. After that, we went to Fort Collins and as part of my graduation gift, we picked up a fair number of suits. Decent suits. Suits that actually must be tailored (they'll be ready in a couple weeks). It will be very nice to actually have some nice things.
After that, we went to a party of one of my classmates. He's from New Orleans, and every year he ships in live crawfish and hosts a boil. This was a big one, given graduation. He had tons of family there, and everyone was really friendly. It was a truly great party, with amazing food. The last pot of crawfish was really spicy--which is the best way to go.
I was truly wiped at the end of the day. It was a lot of driving, and a lot of activity.
I suppose now it's time to find a place to live.
Congratulations! I hope the living-space search goes smoothly & that you can take a bit of time to 'decompress' before the next phase. I'd guess it will feel a bit odd not to have as long a 'to-do' list -- at least until the job begins ;^)
Enjoy!

Thanks, I'm certainly going to do my best. Relaxation, here I come!
