Taking the day off...

After watching, waiting, and seeing my son John, fight, struggle and just plain work god damn hard for 12years; today he graduates with his degree in advanced electronics engineering. Though he will never be able to say he proudly failed Algebra 1 seven times like I can, I am proud of him anyway.

  2. Congratulations.
    I can imagine how proud parents become.
    My father wanted me to take up Electrical and Electronic Engineering too, I took it for a while, months later, switched to law. Must have broken his heart, I guess he'll be happy with me in law.
    Sometimes, I think its a little confusing to understand what parents really want.

  5. Wow. Great. Congrats.

    Myself, I too failed algebra--I somehow didn't get it that you simply added the powers in some operations...Got a B+ in Physics, though.
    What the hell. I'm a word freak like you.
