No More Pencils, Lots More Books

Tomorrow, I make my last move as a college student and my first into life post-graduation. A huge step that I'm trying to take as slowly as possible and find the balance between saying goodbye to 18 years of schooling and saying hello to the first time that I won't go back to the classroom come January.

I have already donned a cap and gown and walked across the stage in celebration of my soon to be alma mater, but tomorrow, I will receive the final nod to end my college career. And in six weeks, when my diploma finally arrives in the mail, I'll know it's truly real. Until then, I'll get the frame dust free and ready.
