The past week has been bittersweet, as it saw the end of the school activities that I have participated in since ever since I was little. Last Saturday was the performance of my last Drama Camp EVER. I have been participating in the annual homeschool drama production since I was just four years old. That’s a mind boggling fourteen years!!!
It’s a little hard to say goodbye to recitals, quiz bowls, and memorizing lines, but not quite as hard as I thought it would be. After eighteen years, there’s a sense of ‘it’s time’, and what is dawning on the horizon is much too exciting to spend much time looking back.
The next chapter is opening quickly. In two weeks class registration for college begins, and a brand new laptop is in my closet, waiting for classes this fall. I am going to my first job interview this afternoon, as I need to start working towards a car to call my own. Very soon, I shall be writing the next four year long chapter of my life.
Yes, Sarah, graduation is a rite of passage.
