One of the benefits, and there are many, of graduating from The George Washington University, lest anyone confuse it with Georgetown, is sitting on the Mall with the sun glaring down on you in May, listening to a speaker (last year it was George and Barbara Bush) offer counsel about surviving in the big bad world.
The one thing I personally look forward to is wearing my new dress I specifically bought for this occasion.
I have been discussing how I am going to personally celebrate this achievement with Steph and Kim. I think Captain Pell's may be in the plans, in addition to, the Monumental Celebration at Union Station. Man, I love living in DC! However, if I have to move in June I think spending an evening dancing in Union Station would be the perfect culmination of my time in Washington.
This is one adventure I can't wait to complete.
