Time for playing with fire!

I have always said that I was going to burn all of the papers I had written, notes for studying for quals and comps, all of the notes from meeting with my advisor and committee members,  and all rough drafts. Well, the day finally came. You can see the stack of papers I had.

It took a while, but we got them all burned. Nathan even brought a rough draft of his dissertation to join the fire.

 

If you look closely, you can see that these are graduation caps.
