Mine too.

I didn't care much for the HS graduation. In all honesty, I felt as if high-school graduation was handed to me. Despite transferring to a private HS and having a much tougher education, I still felt like everyone in the world who wants to graduates high-school and I didn't see it as an accomplishment. Or at least I felt that was back then.

I look forward to college graduation though, because it feels as though I actually need to put in the time to earn it. I've spent more time on school in the first year here than I ever did in my entire life, combined. It doesn't feel like any of the classes are easy, and it doesn't feel like I'm going to be handed a piece of paper when I walk out the door. I used to think writing a 3 page paper was horrible, and yet my first assignment in computer graphics had a 37 page write-up to go along with the code. When, and if I make it out of here, I think I'll have a completely different outlook on what it took to earn the paper.

Personally, I can't wait.
