That's it; I'm moving to Finland to get my PhD.

Unfortunately you have to pay for them :S

So Finland and sister Finland have a PHD ?

Usually, though not always: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctoral_hat

Verdict: True

Hmm... I could challenge someone. I could make wooden sword too tho.

Dear @Tina & @Tama (that is mum and dad in Samoan)

I'm studying in Finland. You can't stop me.

From your loving daughter Es'a.

can i graduate there?

I know where I'm going for a free sword >

Wow. Cooler then a piece of rolled paper.

@Cansu
I know right!
I try to chuckle at this as a "silly archaic tradition" ... But deep down... I would be thrilled to get a posh hat and a sword to mark such a gentlemanly respectable achievement!
