Many publishers won't take previously published material, but, as you say, since they aren't paying and it is just my blog, it should be okay. :D<br /><br />Thanks, sky! That makes me feel better! I need to send it in. :)zellakatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13466934007546605691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3947315095649206987.post-46637778378699481632010-05-18T00:01:24.777-05:002010-05-18T00:01:24.777-05:00what do you mean "previously published?"...what do you mean "previously published?" you mean published here? if that's all, then of course you can still send it to sparklife! it's not a crime to plagerize yourself, and this IS just your own personal blog after all.skys417https://www.blogger.com/profile/13879046190501185841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3947315095649206987.post-55948118048987630032010-05-17T22:16:34.121-05:002010-05-17T22:16:34.121-05:00Oh, that's cool!

I was a poli sci major myself for all of about seven months. :D It's a very interesting subject, but my love for history and English (combined with a growing dislike for the law career I had planned on) made me switch. I wouldn't mind taking a few more classes in it, but the school that I am transfering to doesn't offer them. :)zellakatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13466934007546605691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3947315095649206987.post-90788734964996456372010-05-17T11:14:06.167-05:002010-05-17T11:14:06.167-05:00It was based on his book 'The Places You'l...It was based on his book 'The Places You'll Go' so it was a pretty cute commencement theme.<br /><br />She majored in Political Science and Foreign Affairs (or International Relations.

Thanks, guys! :)<br /><br />That Dr. Seuss party sounds like the epitome of awesomeness!

It must feel nice to finally be free of school after all that work xD<br /><br />I agree with Scott; this would make an excellent SL article on graduating!<br /><br />My sister graduated from college yesterday too, but it was fairly normal, aside from the Dr. Seuss theme at the party before. But that was kinda awesome.rebel_of_nowherehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12825980947498261528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3947315095649206987.post-85953040472529789042010-05-17T01:27:12.817-05:002010-05-17T01:27:12.817-05:00Oh my, Sky!

You need to organize the relatives into rogue bands of photographers that will sneak up to the stand and take snapshots. Take that, crazy administrators! :Dzellakatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13466934007546605691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3947315095649206987.post-49504433598113465372010-05-17T01:20:21.351-05:002010-05-17T01:20:21.351-05:00it's impossible to take pictures of our gradua...it's impossible to take pictures of our graduates at our school graduation. we have our graduation in our football stadium so all the graduates are on the field, all wearing the same gown so it's impossible to tell who is who, while all the invites (ie family) are up in the audience a thousand feet away, where they cannot see anything but this sea of people all wearing the same thing. They put up a makeshift stage in the middle of the field, but unless you have some ultra-long zoom lens and a good vantage point, you'll never be able to photograph the person getting their diploma thing on stage. you just see colored dots moving up on one side and down the other...skys417https://www.blogger.com/profile/13879046190501185841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3947315095649206987.post-12822976958834182252010-05-17T01:16:47.528-05:002010-05-17T01:16:47.528-05:00Scott: You think they'll take it?

Thanks for the double congratulations, as well! :)<br /><br />Feathers: Yay! Glad it was useful. You'll do just fine--You picked up all the essentials, especially the bit about shorts. (I am now scarred for life. :P) Thanks for the congrats! :)<br /><br />Amarantha: Thanks so much! That sounds like fun. What instrument do you play? Early congratulations on your graduation next year! :)<br /><br />Scadoosh: Awww Thanks so much! I am glad you enjoyed it and found it informative.
