As we go on, we remember
It finally came.
It honestly doesn't feel real to me yet, not even after all hugs and congrats, not even after the smiles and tears.
There's a diploma in my room saying I have graduated from Milwaukee High School of the Arts, but part of me doesn't believe it.
As excited as I am to be done, it still hurts.
I've fallen into this pattern with school, and now it's over.
I just checked my exam grades online and I passed with As and Bs.
I have three vases of flowers and two balloons from my family. My ma said she wishes she could have gotten me some flowers or balloons, but I told her it didn't matter. Flowers die and balloons pop. It's the emotions that matter.
So now starts the rest of my life.
Holy shit.
