I AM GRADUATING TODAYYYYYYYYYYYYY.
Or more accurately, my convocation's going to be at 8PM tonight at the NUS University Cultural Centre! It's probably going to end at about 9.30PM. Please come before (I'll be there at about 7.15PM) or after if you want to take photos with me!!!!!!! :D
I actually don't really feel much toward graduation because I think it hasn't really sunk in. I went to look at some photos from the last day of school in primary school, secondary school and junior college and those were really fun days. Somehow those were less scary because I knew I was going on to another phase in my life, but those phases were fixed. Decided by someone else for me, that is. Now though, I'm on to face a whole new world with absolutely no clue what's in store for me. I'm pretty glad I'm graduating though, thinking on it - almost a year ago, I was this close to quitting school because of a traumatic experience. I could have died. Thank goodness friends and family helped me pull through. I'm still not out of the thick yet, but hey, at least I didn't slit my wrists. Plus I'm graduating! (Yes I know, this was meant to be a happy post)
Feeling a little nervous about nothing yet everything in general, because I'm the first in the family to get a college degree and I don't have a family member to consult regarding inane things like what to wear beneath one's academic dress. Will a tee and ripped shorts suffice?
I kid.
Goodnight
