Graduation Day!

Today at 9:30am I became one of the newest (there where about 900 students) Stephen F. Austin State University Alumni....today was the day I've been working towards since my first day of college class back in August of 2007! Words can not describe how I'm feeling right know...but surreal sum's it up pretty nicely!

 Me before graduation!
Me and the family after graduation!

Graduation's one of the most mixed up times in anyone's life, there's nothing easy about it. You might be feeling "Woohoo, I'm free!" and "This is is what I set out to achieve and I've done it!" but at the back of your mind, you might have "Oh help, what next?". Or you might be worried about the graduate jobs market. You might be worried about losing the structure that you've had up until now. You might never have pictured yourself in this moment before or you might have thought about the moment too much.

Graduation isn't as straightforward as everyone thinks and, oddly, it's probably a good sign that you can't put it into words. And don't worry if you start getting some less positive feelings creeping through. Graduation can feel like a door closing and in some ways, it is. But, if you'll forgive the painful cliche, it's also the rest of your life starting. And that's got to be something to be excited about. :)
