About graduation

I graduated twice.

This was taken on my high school graduation day. Me n my girls. I know, cuteness alert!

And this was months ago. I graduated from Seattle Central Community College as an Associate of Arts.

Graduation is an essential check point in life. It combines both the YEAH-IT'S-DONE kind of feeling and SO-WHAT'S-NEXT kind of sense. I know giving birth is not comparable to anything, but to some extent graduation and giving birth have similarities. Sorry, Moms, I know I have no idea how painful giving birth is, but I just want to donkey-bridge these two.

I think you know where I'm leading to. When a Mom cheers, "Yeay! I did it! I give birth to this lovely baby!" the next task to raise and maintain the baby's loveliness is on its way. It's similar to graduation. Right after you get a degree, right after you arrive at the finish line, the bigger race is starting. Still using the same analogy, parents' successfulness is measured by the kids' loveliness. I know that Mommy has to succeed in delivering the baby first, but nobody will say that Mommy fails if the labor process turns out to be -you know- flopped.

Just a donkey bridge, peeps. No offense.

Anyway, I got this picture from a friend of mine in the Community College, Tiffany Dickerson.

Sweet, right?

I just wanna say, I can't wait to graduate for the third time (bachelor degree yeay!) and soar my spirit. Happy belated graduation!
