Degree stifficate is perhaps somewhere in the house; probably in my desk but it could be in storage or at my mama and papa's house. It has only ever lived in a manila envelope. I boycotted my degree ceremony for reasons which I no longer recall.

Glasses are rim down in our hotel bar, apart from a few old ones in a display cabinet in the hallway with a bit of silver and old china.

I keep my regular kitchen glasses in a cabinet in the kitchen, but the drinking glasses - Pilsners, shot glasses, etc., and tea mugs - I keep in a china hutch.

I checked "in a special folder," but "somewhere, probably," would also have been accurate. I don't know exactly where it is, but they gave it to me in a fancy folder and I presume that it is still in its fancy folder, wherever that fancy folder may be (probably my dad's attic).

All of my glasses are in the cabinet to the right of the kitchen sink.

My diplomas/certificates are on top of one of the bookshelves, I think. there or else in the bottom drawer of my desk, or in that blue box in the basement. Buggerit, I know they're around someplace in this house.

Much of the time drinking glasses pass directly from draining board to wherever I'm pouring out the wine (cheapo supermarket glasses because I always break glasses anyway; frequently replaced to keep up the numbers because I still haven't managed to build up a suitable work ethic to wash up after every meal for one person)

My degrees have all been framed now, but are sitting in my room (at my parents' place) leaning against the wall. Eventually I intend to bring my Law degree up to Sydney and hang it in my office. Also my (NSW) admission certificate - my Victorian one, my Arts degree, German diploma and Grad Dip in Legal Practice will stay at my parents - some of them on our family degree wall - until I get my own place where I can hang things on the walls (one of the things I hate about renting...).

My wine glasses are on the bottom shelf of a wall cabinet: my water glasses are on the middle shelf of the same wall cabinet.

Gah. The piece of paper which proclaims my survival to the end of the torment that was PhD (shudders) is shoved in between a filing cabinet and a bookcase in total obscurity, so that my walls can be covered with far more inspiring things, like holographic circles of pink and gold contact in a winding trail...

I know where my certificates are because I haven't moved them since I got home from the library where I'd been photocopying them. They're in an ordinary plastic folder, shoved down the side of the wardrobe. I had a panic when I discovered that I had to photocopy them to send to prospective employers - it turned out that they were in a drawer at my parents' house and had to be posted to me in a hurry.

Glasses are in ordinary kitchen cupboards at about head level, by the sink. Wine glasses on the top shelf and tall glasses behind the tea (I'm not sure why - I think the tea expanded into the space created by broken glasses) in one cupboard, and short glasses and pint glasses fighting for space with mugs in another cupboard. Incidentally, does anyone know where I can buy pint mugs? I used to have one but it met a saucepan rather too hard some time ago.

Just wanted to check you got the Amazon voucher.

And to wish you a happy birthday. Hope you have a great day and lots of cake.

My AVCE certs are..somewhere. I'm assuming in a folder. I'll put my BSc somewhere where I can find it when I get it, unless I get my first with honours, in which case my parents will probably frame it. The same goes for any future qualifications.

My glasses live in with my flatmates's glasses in the bottom shelf of a high wall cupboard. They're stacked in three or two depending on whether they're glasses or mugs. Pint glasses and shots live on the top shelf. Unless they're my LotR shot glasses in which case they're in my room. I do store them rim down occasionally as an automatic reflex from barwenching but don't like to do that unless I can get plastic mesh for between the glass and the shelf.

My mother has put my higher results up on the wall of the downstairs loo, opposite the toilet. That's how my mother expresses parental pride.

No certficates yet but I had a meeting about summer reading for my disertation topic, which is witch craft and the end of time. Yay quite excited and scared. I store my glasses on the middle shelf of my cabinet btw.

[sammywol.livejournal.com]

Don't know if you really care or not but we have so many glasses they are kept in a variety of places: all shelves of a wall cabinet, in a box on top of the wall cabinet, in a box we haven't unpacked but really should, at my parents' house in a box we haven't unpacked but really should, and last and most importantly, in the dishwasher, oh, and rim down, absolutely.

If this is more than you needed for your Monday pleasure then blame leedy's birthday wishes sent me here. Happy Birthday by the way!

My two degrees are framed, and leaning against a wall in the bedroom closet. Or possibly under the bed. I'm not sure.

One day, I will have an office, and then they will go on the wall.

And the regular drinking glasses are on the bottom shelf, and wine etc. glasses are on the top shelf.

Every now and then I decide it is the Best Idea ever to store my glasses and mugs rim side down in the cupboard. Because otherwise, they get all dusty and then I have to wash them again, which is just silly. But it never lasts more than a day or so... Ah dear.

As for what kind of cupboard they live in, at the moment it's a wall cupboard on any shelf that takes my fancy. At home, I can't remember. My mother had a kitchen reorganisational moment about a year ago and as with everything else that's changed since I went to uni (the advent of recycling, the second fridge, rules regarding which dog's allowed where and when) I can never remember the new system but default to the old. Which drives my parents nuts...

I use clean kitchen roll to store my glasses on rim down, I don't like putting them straight down in the cupboard. Quite often I just put them in before they're dry so they dry better that way, I was taught when working in pubs that you should never dry the insides of glasses with tea towels.

MY glasses are kept in something that I think was supposed to be a vegetable rack, but isn't used as one. They're rim down to stop stuff falling into them, which seems a good reason to me.
