It's that time of year. Graduation is quickly approaching and for all the graduates out there, it's time for one of the biggest decisions. Time to decide how you're gonna decorate your graduation cap. When you finally get it, you get completely overwhelmed with ideas, and realize that you are might not be the best at crafting...but that's okay it's the effort that counts, right?
1. I've officially got my cap and gown! Is this real?

2. Crap...this means I'm going to have to decorate it soon...I need to seriously think about this now...
I've dreamed about it, but not seriously...How does one even begin to go about designing their cap? Are there any classes offered on how to do this?
3. Lemme sketch out a few designs.

6. Crap lemme get a second opinion.
7. Okay, I think I like this. Time to put it on the mortar board.
8. What if I mess up...can I fix it? Do they sell any extra caps?

Those puffy paints are no joke. No undo button if you mess it up.
9. I'm gonna practice on a piece of paper first.
Good idea. Never try to go for it on the first try.
10. Oh thank goodness I practiced. That would've gone really badly.

Paint. Everywhere.
11. Alright I've been practicing for awhile...I'm gonna try it for real this time.
12. Deep breath...go.

14. Oh gosh my hand won't stop shaking.
15. Crap that letter looks weird...I'm gonna try and fix it. Should I touch it, or not?

16. I'm not gonna touch it.
Pro tip: Do not touch it. You'll only make it worse.
17. Okay, I'm just gonna keep going...
18. I really wish my hand would stop shaking...
19. I hope people can't tell my hand was shaking when this is all done.
20. I got through one word!
