I'm excited, it will be a very long day though, Saturday I'm out of the 
house at 5 AM to head to the campus I've never been to before, but, then 
it's over. I'm so glad school is over, I'm looking forward to this, I was 
back and forth about since I took classes online if I even wanted to go to 
graduation or just get the diploma in the mail but after all the struggles, 
nope, I'm going to walk proudly across that stage, and kind of cap it off 
the right way.
