For those who have a university or college degree, do you have your diploma hanging on the wall, or is it in storage somewhere?

1 Answer

Answer :

Mine is in a box somewhere. I left it when I moved with most of my other stuff six months ago. Some stuff was moved to to my sisters ex-husbands house. Some was moved into my mothers storage unit. I don’t know where it is (diploma). And I really don’t care. I only moved with my electronics, personal hygiene stuff, and clothes. Six months later and I don’t miss any of my other crap. edit :: Seriously.. Last time I moved I didn’t have a bed, pillows, sheets, blanket, desk, or chair. I got here on the 29th of December. (2008)
