BA

Some tangible differences in being a graduate:

1. I now have TWO grad hats that don't fit me at home: the blue one from PMSS, the black one from UBC.
2. I now have TWO graduation pins: the blue, round IB one from PMSS and a UBC alumni one from today.
3. When I get a name card in the future, I would be Kathy Wong BA
4. I am no longer eligible for student rates at the gym, aquarium, etc.
5. I don't have a Upass.

Some intangible differences in being a graduate:

1. I can now officially pretend that I know a lot about International Relations (my major) and History (my minor).
2. I don't know what to refer to myself now since I can't say "student" anymore (I guess the closest term would be 'unemployed')
3. Midterms, finals, quizzes, and GPAs don't apply to me anymore (unless I decide to apply to grad school)


Oh, but one thing that is worth taking note is that I found out today (while reading through my UBC alumni handbook) that as an alumni, I have lifelong access to UBC's libraries. SOO AWESOME!
