"Please don't bother getting me flowers or soft toys"
"Ok"

Matt really didn't get me any flowers at my convocation :( lol. The soft toy I was relieved was no where in sight. Matt instead quietly pulled out a little rectangular box wrapped in gold paper and whispered into my left ear in the midst of the chaos "Congratulations, I'm so proud of you" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I quickly slipped it into one of my bags while juggling bouquets of flowers and making sure my mortar board stayed put on my head. Finally home after all the hoo ha, I remembered I had a present to open.
I thought it was so sweet and appropriate in an academic = pen kind of way, if you know what I mean. I thought of getting Matt a Mont Blanc pen for his birthday but thought it was a little boring as a birthday gift and the fact that he's in I.T. and almost never uses a pen which kind of defeats its sole purpose of existence. lol. I love it :)
