I Graduated From High School

I just graduated earlier today 😀🎓! No more high school 😢. I feel happy and sad at the same time haha. I didn't cry like I thought I would, but I did bawl my eyes out on the bus on Wednesday, which was the last day with my favorite teacher in my favorite class. It seemed like it was all happening so fast. And I was so nervous walking up the stage! It's like you're fine sitting down but when you're about to walk up there it just hits you. My extended family didn't get to watch, as the live broadcast didn't seem to be working, but it was great texting them all afterward. It took forever to do my hair last night and this morning and I got little sleep, so I had a hard time staying awake ( up until we gave one particular student a standing ovation), which is embarrassing. Afterward we went to Denny's and I loved walking in there with my gown. I know it's just high school but I'm so proud of my diploma. I feel kind of emotional writing this haha. One stage down, and next up is college! I'm not completely sure how it's gonna go from here ( my first plan didn't exactly work out in time but I've come up with a new one for now and hopefully it'll all work out) but I'm excited (and nervous) to see where it takes me ☺. Wish me luck! Classof2017.

@justthat1girl99: So are you going on to college

justthat1girl99 · 22-25, F

Yes, community college first

bhatjc · 46-50, M

@justthat1girl99: Good plan. Make sure you declare your major first. What studies are you going int

justthat1girl99 · 22-25, F

I want to become an animator, but lately I haven't been too sure

@justthat1girl99: You have your whole life a head of you. Just take the classes you like. But make sure you get them in early. So they don't change the rules on you

justthat1girl99 · 22-25, F

Right haha, don't want that to happen. After I attend my job fair and get a job, I plan to talk to a counselor very soon. No more procrastinating (I hope).

@justthat1girl99: Talk to a counselor and see what classes they have for that program. declaring earlier makes it so that you are grandfathered in on some courses

justthat1girl99 · 22-25, F

That's the plan. I gotta take online classes the first semester though. I'm not sure if the courses work exactly the same, but I'm told online classes are even hard than normal ones.

bhatjc · 46-50, M

@justthat1girl99: That is a toss up on the online courses. The other classes where you have to sit in classes. Some times the teachers are not around after class.

justthat1girl99 · 22-25, F

Oh I see. Well in the case, I just pray I can work through it either way I get haha.

bhatjc · 46-50, M

@justthat1girl99: Yeah

justthat1girl99 · 22-25, F

Well thank you once again for the support, I sure enjoyed talking to you

bhatjc · 46-50, M

@justthat1girl99: Your welcome. The same goes for me as well. If you need to talk to ,i'm here
