I finally made it!!

    After 12 long years, I finally graduated! I didn't feel like I was old enough. It was definitely a weird feeling, knowing that I would never go back to high school. But ready or not, it came.
I graduated from Marana High School in Tucson on May 19, 2010 at 8:00 pm.
       I felt super special because both of my grandmas and my aunt, Rachael, all flew from Utah to see me! We had so much fun. We went up to a resort in Phoenix that had a water park and spent two days. Then my parents and my grandmas took me college shopping at Ikea to get the necessities of life. I was sad to see them leave, but I had such a fun time.
      Graduation was kind of a shocker. After I walked across the stage and sat down, diploma in hand, it was as if someone slapped me in the face and screamed "Life's about to start! Time to grow up!" in my face. I knew I would have to start doing things for myself...like laundry, and bills. And I was even more scared that in only 2 months I would move out of the house, to a city I didn't know and where I was all alone and knew no one. But i figured it would all be okay once I actually got started.

And here is where the adventures begin....
