Ronnica, the Graduate

Today is the day. At 10 AM this morning, I will be graduating to never darken a door of any learning institution again. Okay, so that’s probably an exaggeration. But still, my formal education is now at an end.

Since I’m sure I’ll get questions about it and I don’t have to worry about stalkers since I’m a graduate, I am receiving a Masters of Divinity in Christian Ministry from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. If you know nothing about seminary degrees, you should know that an M. Div is 90 hours, about 3 times the number of hours required for most other masters programs.

And oh, does it feel so good. Sure, it’s bittersweet, but I’ve been working for this day for FOREVER. Or 20 1/2 years. Whichever is shorter.

Stop by tomorrow for the most momentous school day memory ever!

    What? You don’t want to stay in school and start working on that Phd? “Dr. Ronnica” has a nice ring, don’t you think? Just kidding. I don’t blame you one bit! Relax and enjoy yourself for a bit. You’ve earned it.
