Graduation day was hectic,long, and really great!!! Im so blessed to have so many people care about me, to go out of there way and come up to flagstaff to watch me graduate!!! ALL the people that i loved were there!! A big group there physically, cheering me on, and some were more in spirit, from the midwest states, Egypt, to New Zealand. I feel so.....blessed. thats the best word to describe it. For most of the day i was just going through the motions, ya know!? Ive graduated before, so this wasnt any different! But i guess it all JUST hit me right now at 1 in the morning on my last night/day in flagstaff.
I remember coming up here for the first time, and at night, a group of people i was with were walking outside, and my cousin said " okay, dont look up until i tell you to." so i dont. and we walk a little further where there weren't as many bright orange lights. then my cousin says " okay look up!!" so i look straight up, and i see the blackest sky ive ever seen along with the brightest stars. I felt sooooo close to the sky that i could reach a little bit and grab a star! it was breathtaking it ALMOST brought me to tears!! Tonight, as i packed the last of my bags and loaded them in my car at midnight, i looked up and saw the same beautiful night sky, and i was brought to tears :'(
I stayed out there for a little while and all the memories made over the past 4 years were flooding my head, especially the last 2 years, and how great they were, and how much ive seen and heard, and felt. And i dont think college would have affected me in the same way, if i was not in Flagstaff. I love....Loved it here. This place will always have a special place in my heart:)
