I had my pinning in December, which meant that I graduated

in December. However, my school only has one graduation ceremony

a year, which is in MAY. Since I graduated in the Fall, I would have to wait 5 months

later to actually WALK with a cap and gown.

Some people in my cohort doesn't think it's necessary, but 

I want to have that feeling of walking with a cap and gown,

getting my diploma (even though I already received it in the mail) and have

Leis piled up passed my eyes LOL! I just really want it to feel like I really graduated,

with all of my family there!

I just want to be acknowledged for my accomplishments.

It ain't legit until you have cap and gown on nawmsayin? lol.

It's just such a relief that i'm done studying for my NCLEX and passed.

All I need now is a job.

anyhoo.. I told my boyfriend to take some photos of me with my

cap and gown, so that I can print them out and send pictures

along with my commencement and graduation party invitations.

Here's a sample. I added the "Veasna Sey Photography" just for fun. ha ha ha.
