So next week is graduation of my class. For me it looks like everyone is making such a big deal out of it. Like a celebration of some sort. Is it just me, or did graduating from college (especially undergrad and lower institutions) not feel like an accomplishment at all? Like what's the fucking big deal, everyone graduates sooner or later. Fuck, I don't even want attend my graduation.
Matter of fact, Bachelor's degree is just like a High School diploma these days. Well, it does mark an end to a significant portion of a person's life; namely, the decision to either stop learning, or become an expert in the field of your choice. I am attending the commencement just because my parents will be there. To be honestly going to the ceremony was more for my parents than me. All the same, I would have skipped it, but the parents came and wanted to see me walk, etc. Getting myself a PhD or Graduate from Med School or some shit and then I may not whining about celebration.
You will have a new life after graduation.
ReplyDeleteSuch new life, and experience that the college itself doesn't prepare us to go against!
