My diploma arrived in the mail today. My diploma certifying that I've earned a Master's degree, which is, in all probability, the last degree I'll ever receive...
...and it's laminated.
Honest to God, it's laminated. My parents keep threatening to switch it for my placemat. It's bad enough that the paper's yellowish and watermarked with the manufacturer, and that the thing's vertically aligned, but next to my Yale diploma - hell, next to my high school diploma - it looks cheap. Very cheap.
Accompanying the diploma-cum-placemat was a paper reminding me that for £20, I could have a nice version on parchment, in Latin, with a leather seal.
My parents independently decided that springing for this version would be a good idea.
