My beautiful wife and me.

[Tobin S.]

Here I am after accepting my induction into an international honor society for business students. I am a senior and I have a 4.0 GPA. Only students who have a GPA of 3.71 or better if they are seniors and who are in the top 20% of their classes are offered membership.

1. Congratulations!

[Tobin S.]

4. Thank you!

[NYC_SKP]

2. You two, together, you both together are fucking beautiful. I hope you don't mind my French!

Beautiful. You two, you both, happy and smiling and the happy smiling a result of your being right there together.

You two fucking rock!

Thanks for the smiles!

[Tobin S.]

5. Thank you!

I'm not sure if we'd be together if it weren't for DU. We didn't meet here, but just the whole idea of meeting people from online might not have occurred to me if it weren't for this place.

[MiddleFingerMom]

14. That wasn't French.

6. Thanks!

[frogmarch]

7. Congratulations, Tobin!

Well done!

You and your wife look like a very happy couple.

[Tobin S.]

8. We are very happy.

And when she gets a little down I tell her to stick with me because together we're going places.

[CurtEastPoint]

9. Well done! Congratulations!

[Tobin S.]

10. Thank you!

[Mira]

11. Wonderful couple - and congratulations! n/t

[Tobin S.]

12. Thanks!

[OriginalGeek]

13. I agree with everything NYC_SKP said

And i think your tie is great too. Congrats on all your achievements and success!

[Tobin S.]

15. Thank you! That is a $40 tie.

Probably the most serious clothing accessory that I've ever bought. Counting the shoes, suit, and tie I was probably wearing about $500 worth of clothes that evening. That's big money for clothes for a guy who normally wears bib overalls and t-shirts.

[OriginalGeek]

29. I love getting dressed up

every now and again. lol, that's big money for most folks but well spent as it's a great tie (and other stuff too!)

[haele]

16. Congratulations!

It's tough maintaining a GPA high average and working. Having a supportive spouse helps, doesn't it?

(currently holding a 3.85 going into the last year of a BSB - but that's only because my boss lets me do homework during lunch, and my husband has set a "No DU until you finish your homework" policy...)

[Tobin S.]

19. Thank you!

Yes. I think it really sunk in for my wife at that ceremony. This isn't just about me settling unfinished business. It's about our future and what happened there that night is another step forward leading to a better life.

Keep up the good work!

[LibDemAlways]

17. Congratulations! That's quite an

accomplishment! Wish you and your wife all the best!

[Tobin S.]

20. Thanks!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

18. Congratulations!

And that's for the induction into the honor society, and for your beautiful, loving wife!

I'm really happy for you, my dear Tobin!

[Tobin S.]

22. Thanks, Peggy!

Finding and marrying her will always be my greatest accomplishment. I'm just trying to add to an already great thing.

[SoapBox]

21. Bravo!

Thanks for sharing with us.

[Tobin S.]

23. Thanks!

[zeemike]

24. Now that is something to be proud of.

A 4.0 grade average and a good woman....what else could a man want.
Congratulations on both.

[passiveporcupine]

25. you are a very happy looking and beautiful couple

Congrats to you from someone who made the dean's list...not quite the honor society! Way to Go!!!

[CherokeeDem]

26. Congratulations!

Quite an achievement, you should be very proud.

And a very lovely couple you two are! I must say Mrs. TobinS looks fantastic... love the jewelry, pretty lady.

[MiddleFingerMom]

30. You both picked winners, that's for sure!!!

And you both look fantastic!!! It's great to see you, Jen... we're graced by your presence so seldom anymore,
.
Hi, Jen!!!
.
.
Tobin... are you wearing your biballs underneath your shirt and tie or have you deserted your roots?
.
.
.
Tonight's the big night out, no. We want details... restaurant, food ordered, movie, celebratory sex?
.
.
.
No, seriously.

[nolabear]

33. It's so lovely being a part of your life, Tobin and Jen.

You make me smile. Congratulations on so many great things!

[RainDog]

34. Congrats!

I know the hard work that goes into that - especially with family responsibilities.

I worked while my ex was in grad school, then went back to school myself. then found out... oops! I'm preggers. But kept at it (school and preggers.)

When I was nominated for Phi Beta Kappa, the wife of one of my hub's colleagues came to me and said... congrats, but in my field, they don't offer that. She repeated this about three times. Okay. She was in business... anyway, I told my ex not to bother to tell anyone he knew when I was nominated for a Rhodes Scholarship because those sorts of congrats from people were... strange. Turned out you couldn't be married and receive one anyway, so the issue was moot.

BUT I am here to say... yes, you do have those things in your field...

and BIG CONGRATS to you.

xoxo.

[Isoldeblue]

[Ilsa]

56. I'm all smiles looking at the two of you.

Congratulations to you both on your achievement! I hope lots of offers come your way!

[judesedit]

57. Now go out & do somethng good for yourselves & this country if you care. Show us what ur made of

We need young people to get involved. Run for office in your district...or something. You are obviously tenacious. There must be something a business major can do to HELP the majority instead of hurt it as in the status quo. Get a job in local government and expose the thieves.
Sorry for ranting. I'm very proud of you. Hope you go further.

[Still Blue in PDX]

58. Congratulations! You look mahvelous.

And by that I mean you look happy with the world and with each other. Honor Society and found your soul mate? Plus a perfect tie knotted perfectly.

Yep, you're going places.

[No Vested Interest]

64. You can be rightly proud

both of your academic performance, and the love and support of your lovely wife.

[Tikki]

65. I am so proud of you two…your story, which I have followed here, is remarkable and...

love wins out…and so does hard work and talent. You sir are a very talented writer
and your loving, supportive wife is very much your muse.



Tikki
and if you two aren't just the cutest couple ever..
