I'm not sure if I feel happy or sad. I guess it's a little bit of both. Today was graduation and it was bittersweet. The exciting part was I got to sit on the stage with all of the faculty and a few other students, and I even got a special entrance (which I must admit was pretty intimidating...I walked in with the faculty and EVERYONE else was already inside, so all eyes were on us. Plus, we walked down this really long aisle REALLY slowly...I guess I have practice now for my wedding! Haha). I got recognized once for one of the awards I got, and my picture and bio were in the program which was cool. Unfortunately though, I didn't get to sit with any of my friends, nor take pictures with any of them. By the time I caught up with my family after the ceremony, we were so hot we just wanted to get out of there, so we booked it, beat the traffic and ate an early dinner at an Italian restaurant called Nero's (it wasn't that good, but it was nice to spend time with my family). After dinner I went back to the hotel with my mom and we hung out in the room, got a drink at the bar and just chatted for a few hours which was so nice. And now I'm back here, sitting at my computer in the sorority house for the last time ever. It's such a weird feeling. I want to hang on so badly just because it's safe and I'm so unsure of the future. I want to hang on to these last shreds of memories. I'm really sad that I never got the chance to go around campus and take pictures at the stadium and all the sites. I was looking at facebook pictures and I noticed some of my sorority sisters had done so and it would've been a really nice memento to have.

Tomorrow morning I'm getting up bright and early (too bad I'm so awake I can't sleep), packing up the rest of my things and checking out, eating breakfast with my mom at the hotel and then getting onto the road.

I can't believe it's finally the end.
