Today, I graduate from BRCC. No more classes in V then running across campus to make on in D. No more sitting in Professor Crocketts, Lewanes, Capuano, Ellers, and Johnston's class rooms. No more cafeteria food from the Blue Heron Cafe. No more kidding around with friends, knowing the inside jokes, meeting new people. We're done. Class of 2011. You know what? I think that this is the first time I have actually been overly proud of myself. Highschool graduation was no big deal. Everyone does that. But this is something that I did for me. Something that I can be proud of. Did I mention I am the first person from my dad's side to graduate college? Period? Talk about an intense amount of pressure. But I think I am up for it.
My family means everything to me. From my highs to my low's. They have been there to cheer me on... So have my friends. So even though this chapter of my life is officially closed today they are a theme that will be woven throughout every chapter. I am grateful for that...
So, this is the story of a girl. Born in a Small town. Who stay's true to herself. Who's determined to make something of herself. Who will not stop, will not rest. Will not be discouraged. She's going places. And if you want to come along please do! If not, don't hold her back!
