Yesterday was graduation day! Hurray!!! I'm done. I've had a lot of people ask me if I'm proud or happy or whatever. To be honest, I think the biggest emotion is just relief. I survived probably the worst three year period of my life and dedicated tons of hours to something I had no interest in or passion for. Many people have complemented me on not quitting and toughing it out and say its a big accomplishment. For me, law school was the first time in my life academically where I wasn't a rock star so I don't feel too proud of my record or accomplishment.
However, in areas outside of law school I do feel fairly good about the last three years. I served a lot in the Church and tried to help many people, I learned a ton about myself and how to be happy in life, and maybe most importantly, for the first time in ages I am looking forward to the future and what it might hold.
In this post are pictures of graduation including my dad, Professor Matheson, Platte Nielson (my best friend/colleague at ASU and basically my counselor until I started seeing a real one at BYU), and I've asked my mom for one off her camera but she hasn't delivered yet.
