I graduated from Uni a couple of years ago, did the whole cap and gown thing, had the pictures taken (don't even know where they are now). Since then I've been doing my PGCE part time and have passed, but I needed an extension so my graduation is in January. I feel like I scraped through as I had an MC and had to have the extension so I feel like it's not really an achievment IYSWIM.
I cannot afford the cap and gown and I can't afford the pictures either. Or for myself and DH to take the day off work.
My parents are of the opinion that my sister never had a graduation for her PGCE so I don't need one either.
And I can't see DS, 17 months, sitting through hours of speeches and band-playing.
But then it is a thing that you should do. So I feel silly for not going and like my tutor and work will judge me. But I don't want to.
