Is this really happening?

This morning is our Senior Day speaker, and the beginning of the formal graduation ceremonies. Last night, we had The Party, where The Commodores (yeah, Brick House) performed. That was okay, it was neat with all of the lights and such on the Peabody Lawn. I don't actually know who the speaker guy is for today, but it is something that I can't get over because going to this thing means that graduation is really happening.

I've come to the conclusion that I'm having so much trouble with this because I don't really have all that much to look forward to in the immediate future. Going home for the summer is going to be great....but it's exactly what I have done for the past three years. I'm working at the same job and living with my family again. I feel like I should be moving to where I am going to be living, like everyone else. Not having a job yet is also not exciting. Boooo! I guess it's time for a reality check and for me to realize that this is my last chance to hang out with my sister and parents for an extended period of time, so I should enjoy this while it lasts.

I'm not ready to leave everybody at Vandy, but I don't think I ever will be. My time is up here, so......I guess, bring on graduation?

aww, Ash. Life is just beginning! College is not the be-all, end-all. You don't want to be like the "cool kids" who peak in high school and then live a boring life ever after. College is great, but it shouldn't be all downhill from here!!
