Graduating today...
I am graduating in a few hours and I am simultaneously anxious and depressed.
I am happy to be graduating, but I finished so long ago. I finished my degree last June. I was only doing one unit during that semester, so it's been 17 months since University was a part of my life.
I would have graduated last September, but I had to do a deferred exam, and in that time, they reached their capacity for that round. They only do them twice a year...
I didn't talk to anyone in that final semester. I'm not going to know anyone there.
I'm going to be surrounded by hundreds of people who are actually excited for their graduation and who are going to be celebrating with their loved ones.
My nephew is going to be there, which is nice, but overall I just want to get it over and done with.
Just another part of my life complicated by my condition.
