Okay, so I’m graduating this year. Class of 2019. Yup. It’s been on my mind all day and, honestly, I can’t get it out of my head. What if I trip and fall on the stage? What if someone I hate comes and laughs at/criticizes me? Is the diploma really worth receiving? I don’t know any of these answers. My mind’s been swimming already trying to figure out who I am, my sexuality/gender, work, this moving into adulthood thing, yada, yada, yada. I guess a little support would be nice, or something. I never thought I would make it to this point, but I took a college level entry test the other day and excelled in it. By a lot. I guess I’m having a hard time figuring out how life’s gonna be after this and it scares me to be by my own, yet I want it so bad! Is that natural? How can something so simple be so contradicting? The way I planned this out turned out to be way different (entering high school was the same way(thanks a lot, High School Musical…)) than I thought it was gonna be. What should I do? I don’t want to be that one kid. NO ONE wants that. I feel like I kinda rushed into everything, you know? I’m so confused, I can’t think straight! I know it’s a “wonderful event for a child”, but I’m still scared to death. I’m told college is much better, but I honestly don’t know…
