I graduated today after 4 long years at Carleton College! I am the first in my family to do this, and I’m so proud of myself. I have a love-hate relationship with my "Little Ivy," but I’m grateful for the education I was privileged to attain. I’m grateful that my mom got to watch me walk across the stage because I am truly her wildest dream. I’m glad I was able to set an example for my little cousins, so that they know to stay down until they come up. I’m glad my grandpa was able to see me do something he never once doubted I would achieve. I have faced great adversity, and there are few who could walk in my shoes and get as far as I have. I know my daddy is proud. I’ve always been humble about my accomplishments, but this is one I have to pop my shit about. I am THE generational curse breaker, THE educated, THE dedicated, THE intellect, and I deserve everything and then some. Anyway, shoutout to me and my degree! That JD is next, by the way 🤝🏾
