Exams, honors and silly hats

Oh, what a wonderful gift I found today! There's a CLEP exam in analyzing and interpreting literature that is shorter than the exams I've been taking yet is worth twice the credits. :) Score! So if all goes as expected, that means I now only have two exams left instead of three. Hurrah!

Since I won't be attending graduation and I know that my folks are disappointed about that, I invited them to come up for the honors convocation. They won't be presenting Latin honors there, but they'll be inducting me into the honor society. Not the sort of event I would have gone to otherwise, but they're very excited and it will be nice to get to celebrate with them. It'll be their only time getting to check out the campus, too.

I figure the ceremony's kind of like "graduation lite"...marking academic success without so many long speeches. It's the "tastes great; less filling" version of graduation.

And I don't have to wear a silly hat. Heck, I haven't worn a mortar board since I played Guinan* in an ill-fated Shakespearian Star Trek skit. :)

*and the soothsayer, all hail the ides of March ("It's my only line!")
