So I did it. I graduated. I counted down the days, the hours, the minutes, the seconds. I pinched myself all day graduation day and then have been on the go since then. I don't think I have had the time to slow down and actually think about what the heck happened on the 21st of May at Sun River Church. Every thing seems to have been go, go, go. The Tuesday after I graduated, I went down to my new sch00l to prep for the fall. I did it all by myself and I felt pretty adult like. I did it all by myself, no help from mommy or daddy. Then Thursday I graduated from my leadership class and gave my first "wing it" speech in front of probably 50+ people. Then I headed down to SoCal to visit my father. As I was walking along Huntington Beach the following came to me:
There's not a comforting sound like the ocean waves hitting the shore. There's not a comforting feeling than somewhat cold water hitting your feet as you walk down a beautiful beach on a nice Saturday evening. Things are changing for me, oh yes indeed they are. No more mommy holding my hand making sure, I make it to class, do my homework, study for midterms and finals. It's all up to me.
This is a transitional summer. As I enter into adulthood, follow me, I don't know where this path is going to take me, but if you're in for a ride, I will give you one.
