Hello,
I'm a mature student in my early 40s and I've just completed my B.A..
For the last several months my sister has been hounding me about the date of my graduation because she wants to attend along with her husband (who probably could not care less!).
I am not overly bothered about attending the ceremony, having a photograph taken that will lie in a drawer (my mother is going on about the darn photo). I know already I will be graduating with an excellent grade and that is what is important to me, not the ceremony. In any case, I am taking up a job abroad in the next couple of weeks so could use the excuse of being unable to travel back in September.
How can I get these people off my back?! Am I being unreasonable?
