Graduation
I have a ton of friends that graduated from college this weekend. This pending graduation has been causing me some grief for several reasons. One because everyone is moving on and their lives are changing. Two even if a lot of them are staying in Portland they are no longer going to be centrally located which makes things oh so much harder. Three I've grown accustom to things that have occurred over the last 5 years. Four my ex-girlfriend graduated which brought up a bunch of old feelings and anger. I always thought I would be part of her graduation. I always thought I would be around. I never though it would be like it was today, a whole lot of nothingness related to anything UP or graduation. That really has been causing me a lot of heartache, but I guess its going to get better here soon. Hopefully. Who knows.
Funny thing is you know the normal thing you do right now is 'congratulate' everyone who is graduating, but is it really something right now that want to be doing? This is probably the worst time to graduate. Everything in the world pretty much sucks right now. I don't envy any single one of them. I feel bad for most of them. Most off them don't have a job and will have trouble finding a job for sometime. Poor graduating class of '09. Congratulations class of '09 welcome to the real work and all the crapiness of it. Lol. Oh well, I guess they are happy they are done with school, I mean I was. Although I really wish sometimes that I was back in school. Sometimes I wish I could go back to it all. Maybe someday I will, if I'm lucky.
I also can't believe that it has been one full year since I graduated. It is amazing how quickly it has gone by. It also amazing how much my life has changed since then. I wonder what life will be like in a year from now. Man.
