Musings and explanations from the mind of a journalist

After all is said and done I can say that I'm glad for the experience. The pomp and circumstance was fun to be a part of but I don't need to do it again.
The student speaker made a metaphor about planting daffodils and working hard. A bit trite but it worked.
Even in my short time at BU, I managed to meet and work with several undergrads. It's kind of cool to see them graduate with me.
The undergrad is still walking... Yeah, there are a lot of them!
The undergrad is walking across the stage now. Some of these kids are the definition of over-achievement. Double major, double summa cum laude? Wow!
Just walked across the stage, it's official I'm graduated!
The commencement speaker, Debbie Liebling, is a COM grad ('81). She's giving good advice, if a bit on the side of common sense.
