I've been complaining a lot...
I didn't go to my high school graduation. It was scheduled for the Thursday before Thanksgiving (dumb scheduling - Why not have it IN THE SUMMER before we all went to University???) and I had a university Chemistry test on the Friday (Also dumb scheduling, but at least the prof apologized profusely.) So I wasn't going to drive two hours home, go to the ceremony, then drive two hours back the next morning to do the test that night, and THEN drive two hours BACK for Thanksgiving. That would have been a waste. So I didn't go to the grad ceremony and I just drove home for Thanksgiving after the test. I didn't really care - So we'd all listen to a bunch of speeches and then get a piece of paper that they'd probably mail to me anyway (Thinking about it, did I ever get mine?...)
I chose a random playlist on YouTube yesterday, full of clips/fan-made videos for a favourite show. 'Graduation (Friends Forever)' was in the playlist. Y'know, the one that goes "As we go on... we remember... all the times we... had together" and so on and so forth.
And suddenly I really, really regretted not going to my graduation. I know I'm going to get a BIG one in a couple of years, but I still feel like I missed something important.
I actually feel like I missed two. The graduation for the school I graduated from, and the graduation for the school that I went to for grades 9 and 10. I suddenly feel like I really needed that closure for the latter school... Something to tell me for sure that, yeah, we're all a lot older now, and we may not see each other or talk to each other nearly as much anymore. Because one year later, I still have that closeness with the friends from the second school I went to, but three years later, I feel like most of it is gone for the first one.
I dunno. It just kinda bummed me out. :(
Anywho, that's all for now.
