NOW, I'm officially done with high school! At around 9:40, I got it safely in my hand; my diploma. It's quite an accomplishment but I feel numb to what should bring me joy. I always knew I was going to make it so...I don't know, think what you want because I can't. But I'm happy on the other hand. No more stress and I can take my life into my own hands...but I'm on hold. I'm stuck here for another month... My mom told me: "I left because I wasn't happy. I made more money there but I was miserable. I had to leave. I gave you a limited choice...but you still had one. I had to be closer to my family even if it meant having less money and making sacrifices that did hurt you..." ....I'm doing the same but going away from my family. I feel somewhat selfish to let them down but when I think about the alternatives, I made the right choice! Now, I'm just waiting for that acceptance letter....
