Well......one of the most important things in my life has ended, like all things must. It's very sad. Graduation was the best it has ever been. The spirituality was very strong and I was surrounded by the most loving people I'll ever meet. I actually cried for the first time in four and a half years. It felt great, even if the reason was saddening. I was calm and somber up until my friend Lekey went over to hug her younger sister Anna, and I just lost it. I cried again when we were writing worship journals. I was getting emotional while writing my last paragraph, and started tearing up as I was signing my name as That One Guy named Brad....at this point I was sobbing and ended name with the en. I ripped the pages out of the notebook, closed the notebook, neatly laid my pages down, put the pen down, and cried into my arms. High school graduation felt like nothing, literally NOTHING, compared to this. High school graduation was expected throughout my whole life. I had just happened to come across Southern Appalachian Young Friends.....and I'm glad I did. i had hoped I started earlier because I became a stronger Quaker for myself and I was more open about myself than ever, and SAYF taught me that.
Things are exciting now because I'm officially a Young Adult Friend, and I got to walk both ways across the Warren Wilson bridge at night (it had neat lamps across the railing).
College summer orientation starts on Thursday (EXCITEMENT!)
I may start a new blog on my college experience, but I'll venture back here once in a while.
Also, Twilight is not the best thing in the world (that belongs to Harry Potter), but I am finishing the Vampire Academy series and The Hungers Games trilogy.
