Today was the first day of graduation related activities. The school held its annual honors convocation. I’ve attended this event for the past four years, but this convocation was different because, as a graduating senior, I wore my cap and gown. Something about being in academic dress makes any convocation more memorable. I even got to sit next to one of my best friends. Throughout the ceremony I kept having the strangest experiences of déjà vu. After spending four years thinking about graduating, seeing my best friend sitting next to me in her gown seemed so natural. Now, I just have to get through one week of classes and finals before I can experience graduation for real. I’m nervous as all get out, but I can’t wait to see everyone in their unflattering, wrinkled gowns.
