CONGRATULATIONS! I think I know somewhat what it was like for you to go back to school and change careers at a "mature" age -- I was 40 when I started college, did 2 years of prerequisites; algebra, sciences, etc., and then 1 year of clinical with 1 year left to go. I feel like I have to study so much more than the younger ones because it takes longer for the information to "stick" in my head.
Anyway, enjoy your new bracelet, you deserve it. It''s very unique. AND you get a pair of earrings as well!
