I graduated college today!!! 🎓
When I started this blog in middle school, I was not sure I would ever see this day. But I found my passion, and worked my ass off, and was blessed enough to find folks who supported me endlessly (including many of y’all), so here I am!
Of course, it is not the “graduation” I’ve been dreaming about for years. I am home, far from my campus community, sending emails and texts to celebrate and feel close to my fellow graduates and professors instead of hugs. It sucks but... I do feel close to them. Struggling through the last few months together has only strengthened our bond and I can’t wait for the day when we can see each other again and celebrate properly.
In the meantime, though, I’m officially a college graduate! I’m a historian now!
