So I got my grades yesterday at 8 in the morning. I was panicked before hand, dreading the possibility of not graduating. Yet all is well in some parts of the world since I got a C+ in American Novel and I needed at least a C to get credit. It bothers me though that I busted my ass for the past two months in that class and all I got in return was C+. I do count my blessings when I should, and this is definitely one of them. THANK YOU GOD! So after experiencing absolute hell for four and a half hours yesterday (a.k.a graduation rehearsal), I am this much closer to graduating from college. It is a funny thing though. I never thought of this moment actually occurring. It was always a far away goal that I spent the last five years trying to achieve, yet somehow in the back of my mind I never truly thought it would happen. Now it is and I am a little freaked out. I feel confident enough due to the fact that I already have a full time job that will bring in the necessary income, yet it is a bit scary to think that from now on, the responsiblity of my livelihood rests solely on my shoulders. On a good note, a promotion to assistant manager is looking quite certain in the near future. That would mean a pay increase and more importantly benefits! Sarah, Will, and Reese are in town for the weekend and my parents are coming into town tomorrow morning for the graduation ceremony. It will be nice to be in the comfortable realm of my family for a couple of hours at least. With so much on my plate for the past couple of weeks, I have felt so much pressure to get everything done that life has felt more like a countdown of chores and errands than anything else. I am hoping that after Tuesday, I will be able to take deeper breaths and perhaps begin to enjoy the summer.
