#1: Congratulations on your graduation
#2: If your above post was just a brief, off-the-cuff musing about tomorrow, I can't even imagine how good your PS must have been.
#3: Things that are more difficult to obtain are often more appreciated. You have obviously learned that.
#4: I wish you the best of luck and I hope you get a call from Wake ASAP. They are obviously missing out on someone with great potential.
