So, I'm sitting at home by myself, feeling all nostalgic. Again. My family just came for the weekend and graduation. And I mean, all my family. Extendeds and everyone. And so now they are all gone, and Jason is at work and I'm all alone and I'm really starting to realize that I have graduated college, and I'm done, and the rest of my life starts now. It is a very strange feeling. I guess it hasn't totally sunk in yet, but I didn't feel any of the feelings you're supposed to feel. I wasn't elated, or overjoyed, or even relieved really. Just kind of sad, really. I thought of all the things I wish I had done, or hadn't done and all the good times, and I don't know that I am completely ready to leave all this behind. But I know I don't have a choice.
I've had this account since just before I started college, and even though I didn't keep up with it much the past year or two, I am glad I have a record of this time. But now that I'm leaving college and moving on, this will be the last entry I make here before I move to Portland and start the next chapter. If any of you still read this, know I love you, I will miss you, and you are in my thoughts. In the words of Stephen Chbosky
