Graduation Day
So...I'm graduating tomorrow.
....
.......
I mean--oh fuck I'm graduating tomorrow! I'm having a total "wiggage" moment here. What probably doesn't help is my brother's repeated comments of "don't wake up late" or "remember to walk very *carefully* across that stage". Yeah, those comments so aren't helpful. I suppose extra anxiety is the fact that my family is making an issue of the fact that I am graduating. I know it's sort of a big deal, but I'm just not very use to having things done "in my honor". Even celebrating my 21st birthday last year was an ordeal. I was half-tempted to call it off.
*sigh* I suppose part of the anxiety part is that I'm really going to miss being an undergrad. There's just something about that life, ya know? And yes, yes, I know that next year if I'm enrolled in a graduate program and start bitching about having to go to school, I'm going to be hearing about this. Still, I met a lot of people during my undergrad years--made some friends that I definitely don't want to lose or simply fall out of touch with.
On the other hand---I'm graduating! It's one of those "finally" moments when you realize that you've been in school a good 90% of your life, and that previous 10% you can barely remember.
I should probably be sleeping right now, but I'm honestly a bit wired to sleep. I'll have to though if I really don't want to *miss* my own graduation. Good luck for anyone else graduating this year!
