I just want to congratulate everyone who is graduating in Spring 2011. 4 (or 5) years went by crazy quick, and now it's on to new things. I will miss all the crazy **** that happens in college. Congrats and good luck in your future.

Yeah I know. But, I am attributing every single quote for the rest of my life to MLK, a la the osama thing on facebook. Gotta let idiots know to check their sources.

Awesome.

Some parents sitting in the front row at our graduation had a sign that said "Can't believe it, but you did it" with his name right underneath. Really glad my parents aren't that embarrassing. B-school divisional graduation at 2..crazy how fast 4 years goes.

It really is insane how quickly it goes by, and it's actually quite sad as no matter how much I say I'll keep in touch with all my friends I know I won't. But other than that I can't wait to graduate saturday then go all out that night!

congrats guys. enjoy the time you have post graduation before you get a job. make the most of it- do whatever the hell you want. it's the last extended vacation you'll likely get for a really long time (unless you go to grad school soon).

on a similar note, if you have the option to push your job start date back a month, do it. i started mid july instead of mid june and it was one of the best decisions i've ever made.
