Halfway done

Two exams down, two to go.  I went to school on Monday to drop off my graduation form, and to pick up my graduation costume.  A classmate overheard me talking about my costume, and politely informed me that the correct term is "regalia."  When I got home though, I tried it all on, with all of the stoles, medals, and cords for various student organizations, plus the doctoral hood and beanie, and all of it together definitely amounts to a costume.  No laughing at me at graduation!
