Er, why? I mean you're free to react however you want, I just don't understand "despair".
I prefer indifference. If they pronounce my name right, I don't mind spending a couple of hours.

Yeah and I can understand indifference ( and I'm right with you in the name boat). Despair seemed a little excessive for the situation though....I prefer indifference. If they pronounce my name right, I don't mind spending a couple of hours.
Anyone else out there really dislike these type of things?
I know I'm going to have to suck it up and attend but I saw a past recording of the Blue Coat at my goal school and it just made me groan in despair
Our Blue Coat ceremony before the first day of first year is a pretty small affair. Our white coat basically is our graduation and is a huge event; it's not uncommon for people to skip the actual UPEI graduation altogether and only go to White Coat.I would have preferred to skip these ceremonies and instead have a grander graduation

This is a significant part of why I'm so psyched for white coat. It's one last chance to hang with my amazing classmates (including a certain someone with red hair that abandoned me in this frozen wasteland back in December...)The biggest reason I'm going to white coat is not to get the coat or hear inspirational words about my future and the nobility of our profession or whatever...it's to party like a crazy person with my amazing classmates for the last time. We worked so hard to get where we are now and I want to celebrate that with good food, lots of laughing, crazy dancing and some adult beverages.
So your white coat is all the way at the end pretty much at the finished line. I would much prefer that.
Ooh we should totally put up a finish line!It IS the finish line Actual convocation is earlier in the day, white coat is in the evening.
