Paul Finally Graduates with a Doctorate in Physical Therapy
We went to Paul's Hooding Ceremony on Wednesday. It was a not exactly organized. Paul and his class mates have been going once a month for the last three years to raise money for the Graduation. The class president wanted to have a nice dinner for each of the students families. Paul could only invite 10 people when there are 11 kids in his family so no spouses were invited and luckily someone couldn't come. I was planning on a nice formal dinner. (Not quite) When we got there Paul's Dad had saved us a table but there were only 12 tables and 43 in his graduating class if you do the math not enough room for everyone. We waited in line forever for the the food, they ran out and we ended up eating crackers, cheese and fruit. I was angry but didn't want to ruin Paul's big day. After that we went into another room for the hooding ceremony, the speakers were boring but It was nice to see each student get honored in what he is specializing in. After the ceremony we went out to eat because we were still hungry. The next day was sopose to be the graduation for the college of Health but we decided not to go. We had enough Graduation fun the day before. Any way Paul is finally graduated but still needs to take his final test to get licensed as a Physical Therapist. He takes the test May 9Th. So you probably wont see him before that because he is studying day and night I am surprised to see him when he comes out of his cave for food and water (JK) I want to tell Paul that I am so proud of him. Paul now has a Doctorate degree from the University of Utah. This has been the longest three years of my life!
