Two days AFTER the beginning of the rest of my life

Good den, my friends.

I graduated two days ago, and i have to say that the feeling is everything i never thought i would feel, because i thought i was too calloused, to familiar with the whole "graduation" scene, because of my own imagination of how it would play out.

But you know? I wouldn't have traded that night for anything in the world. I loved every moment, from the heart warming speech of my mama hawk to the hilarious crowd reaction to the score at half-time game at the laker-celtic game. When the confetti was shot in the air and the fireworks went off in the sky, I truly saw every moment i had ever struggled in evaporate in that moment. Being with my friends, having nothing to worry about, and simply celebrating the moment, the joint achievement of our society, and i realized that i was the happiest i had been in a very long time. In truth, it was a story-tale ending to that chapter of my life.

Now?.... now, i look towards the future. I have a goal. I have the books i want to read, the movies I want to watch, and the experiences i want to have. I will seek to further my mind, my heart, and my body's health than before, for when preparing to take the world by storm, one must be go into trials of exercise....

So my friends, i must say that, if graduation, and the days leading to it, have taught me anything, is that each individual is where they are because they NEED to be there, to make a difference. Wherever you are and where you go, remember that you need to be there. It is God's plan for you.

Good night, dear scholars.

Vaya Con Dios.
