Is Graduating The Best Day Of One's Life? by Oscarpraise(m): 6:35pm On Jan 31, 2017
The best day of my life was definitely the day that I graduated from the University. Knowing that all the hard work over the past 12 years has paid off is one of the best feelings I’ve ever had.
Being able to walk across the stage and have my degree handed to me made it all worth it. Making it even better, I had my lectures, course mates, friends and family all there to watch and support me.
Even though it was bittersweet knowing I may never see some of these people again, I was excited to go my separate way and move on in life. I couldn’t wait to not only see where life would take me, but to start a new beginning. The excitement, knowledge of accomplishment, and support made graduation the best day of my life.
The morning of January 24th, 2017 I woke up as if it was any other day. I did my morning routine and went upstairs to watch TV with my family. It never really hit me that I was about to graduate until my mom said the simple 3 words, “Are you ready?”
That’s when I started to get butterflies in my stomach, and thoughts started racing through my head. I began to realize how important this day really was. I always looked forward to it and the goal, forever in the back of my head, was to graduate.
Ever since kindergarten, year after year, I watched people graduating and thought of how long I had until my day would come. Little did I know, in the blink of an eye it would be here, forcing me to move on with life, and start my next chapter.
As nearly seventy seven of us in my department stood in line in our caps and gowns, I began to realize that most of these people I made so many memories with, I may never see again, I brought out my itel S31 mobile, we took lots of pictures and selfies for remembrance and we all went our separate ways. Life is a mystery.
I wish myself and other graduates success in life

December 2017? Are you a time traveler? cheesy
Anyway, congratulations.
I wouldn't call mine the best though, there is always a new target to hit, I hit it, add it to one of my happiest and get another.

Its one of the best days of one's life but certainly not the best, there are better days ahead, and bigger things to be achieved, congrats.

It is if you graduated with a good grade. As for me am graduating with a poor grade(2.2) and am leaving school immediately after my final exams.
