Its About Time

Last week I had a large envelope arrive in the mail. When I saw "Office of the Registrar" I got very excited. I graduated in December but I still had yet to get my diploma. For various reasons (according to them) there was a very long hold up and computer problems and paperwork errors, etc, etc and I had been waiting for my diploma for a very long time.
Finally-it really was here! After all that work a piece of paper just feels good.
Believe it or not, today I got a very similar looking envelope in the mail. I opened it-and it was another diploma! They can't send one in 7 months, then I get two in less than a week. Crazy.
By a weird fluke I also have two undergraduate diplomas (although I can't think of where the other one is right now). There was a typo on everyones diploma-"Regisrtar" or something like that. It was in the really tiny part where I never would have noticed but everyone did get another diploma sent out with instructions to destroy the one with the typo. Yeah, right.
Now I can finally say its official and move on to my next challenge!
