    My wife is graduating with her Bachelor's Degree this weekend. It has been a long hard road for us, but somehow we made it through this. She has worked so incredibly hard on this for a couple of years.

    As of Friday, she will be a Graphic Designer. I'm still puzzled on how to use MS Paint, and she kills me for it. lol.

    If anyone is curious, this is her webpage/portfolio. It's mostly, if not all, classwork.

    Your last name is Derks? Awesome. I wish my first name was Derks. I would have been easily more successful with my name as Derks Hooker.

    Oh BTW, I just e-mailed your wife ;)

    Why would you email my wife?
    Please tell me I'm not going to have to explain why some Hooker, is emailing her...

    That is one argument that I really don't need now. lol.

    Edit: Derks for a first name is usually Dirks. I don't know why, but I think my family changed it somewhere along the lines. I know of a lot more Dirks' than Derks'.

    She just e-mailed me back:

    "Oh wow, that thing is massive. You know North Carolina is only a days drive from Louisiana ;)"

    Lol, this thread went south in a hurry.

    Congrats to your wife. I teach graphic design, so I can appreciate her work (which is impressive btw).

    I'm going to run in the other room and get her now... I keep telling her her work is awesome, but she doesn't believe me. lol. She says it's like when you're a kid, and your parents say how good you look, or how great of a job you are doing...They HAVE to say that...lol
