It was a day that not only I but 150 other students who were graduating with me were exhilarated to take this massive step in life. That morning was by far one of the earliest mornings I have ever been awake due to a school event. I was feeling countless emotions, but even then I wasn’t sure if I was entirely ready to graduate. The adult in me was screaming from the top his lungs, YES! But the kid inside me who has never even left the state of Florida was sadly saying “I’m not ready to graduate”.

The ceremony was going to be taken place at the community college 30 minutes away. I promise that the car ride there was the longest and most nerve wrecking ride of my life. Many memories of my childhood fluttered my mind, from my first lollipop to my first time driving a car. Little did I know, the whole drive up to our destination there were about 25 classmates of mine also driving to graduation, all looking nice and spiffy.

I would walk the halls of my school as a freshman looking up to the seniors, they seemed very grown and mature. I couldn 't wait until I was in their position. I had always dreamed that my senior year was going to be the most exciting and memorable year of my high school
