GraduaZion Day

Today was a BIG DAY!
Wife graduated from the Nursing Program at BCC and duly received her degree, hat, cape and pin! Congratulations are in place but for from enough for the effort!

It has been everything from VERY hard work, stress, anger, concern, irritation over teachers that are far from logical, to joy and laughter as test has been "check off" (most of the times with very high scores), and friendship that will last a life time. I'm impressed and VERY proud of her, especially since much of what they study is so specialized, and literally "chinese" to a generalist as myself.

I know she's very relieved but at the same time, just as this is the beginning of a new carreer, it is also the end of an intense period with fellow friends/students. Bonds are formed for life, and few "institutions" are as good as forming strong bonds, as attending a number of years together at higher education institutions.

The class "scatters" but it sounded like many will remain and work in the Seattle area. Hence, good opportunities to catch up and meet again.

Check out the photos below of the happy girls!
