Today I will graduate as a bachelor but for some reason I can't attend the graduation ceremony. Please talk about your graduation ceremony and your feeling of graduation.

When I graduated from high school, I was quite proud, and my family was proud of me and hollered when I went across the stage. When I graduated from college, my eldest sister, who is now deceased, she was the only one there and she took some pictures, and I never got them. I may ask my brother in law for them, or he may come across them in time.

My eldest daughter recently graduated from high school, and initially, I wanted no parts of it due to her father and I being divorced and he promised to help on her fees and reneged. Well, I felt the best thing to do was just stay away but let my daughter know that no matter what I was glad for her, well, everyone got mad, and I ended up going, taking off that day and had a good time.

I didn't go to my high school graduation, or my college graduation.
I think it's ridiculous to pay money to rent robes and walk across a stage to get a fake diploma. They don't even give you your real one till later.
A graduation ceremony means little to me. I have no one to impress.
I picked it up a week after and it's in a nice frame on my wall and I'm just as happy.

I took the bachelor photos by myself and I paid for that. Days ago I'm a little sentimental because I should say goodbye to my university life. In university I really learn a lot apart from knowledge. I build my way of values. Now I will begin my new working life and I'm happy for that.
