Okay, so, the title for today is “mortarboard wearer”. Sounds fancy, huh? Well, let me tell you, it’s all about graduation caps. I remember when I graduated, the whole cap-throwing thing was a big deal. I got into decorating my cap and went a little overboard, to be honest.
First, I got this plain old black mortarboard. Nothing special, you know? But I wanted it to stand out. So I grabbed some glitter and rhinestones from the craft store. I thought, “Why not? It’s my graduation day!”
I started by gluing the rhinestones around the edges of the cap. It was a bit tedious, but I was determined to make it sparkle. Then, I used the glitter to write out my graduation year in big, bold numbers. It was messy, let me tell you. Glitter everywhere!
- Getting the materials: cap, rhinestones, glitter, glue.
- Outlining the cap with rhinestones.
- Writing the graduation year with glitter.
- Letting it all dry overnight.
The next day, I carefully positioned the cap on my head. It felt a bit heavier than usual, but I didn’t mind. During the ceremony, I noticed a few people looking at my cap. Some were smiling, some were probably thinking I was crazy. But you know what? I didn’t care. I loved how it turned out.
When the time came to throw our caps in the air, I hesitated for a second. I mean, I put a lot of work into that thing! But then I thought, “What the heck?” and I tossed it up with everyone else. It was a fun moment, seeing all those caps flying. And guess what? I didn’t even try to find mine afterward. It was like, “Bye, cap! Thanks for the memories!”
So yeah, that’s my story about becoming a “mortarboard wearer.” It’s not just about the cap, it’s about celebrating all the hard work and everything you’ve achieved. And hey, if you want to decorate your cap, go for it! Just be prepared to get glitter everywhere.
The Feeling of Accomplishment
Wearing that cap, even though it was a bit heavy with all the decorations, it really made me feel like I achieved something big. You know, all those late nights studying, the stress of exams, it all kind of culminated in that one moment. Holding it now, it’s just a simple cap, but back then, it was like a symbol of all the effort I put in.
What Happened After
After graduation, I kept the cap for a while. It was sitting on my shelf, gathering dust, but I couldn’t bring myself to throw it away. Eventually, I packed it up in a box with other mementos. It’s still there somewhere. Every now and then, I come across it and it brings back all those memories. It’s funny how a simple thing like a decorated mortarboard can hold so much meaning, isn’t it?
