Well, after working at it for 11 years, last night, I turned in the capstone project to earn my Masters Degree. In the past, I would have rewarded myself with something like red velvet cake. But instead, I am going to reward myself a session of ice skating (I have to drive an hour each way for that) and possibly a facial or massage.

Congratulations!!
Those are great ideas for a celebration. I think the massage would be an awesome way to unwind from all that hard work!

I have never done anything like a massage or spa treatment before, but I think you are right, it would be good to unwind a bit.
