The Importance of Graduation

If you have graduated from anything; high school, college, or any other type of school, then you understand the amount of work that it takes to be a success. I remember my graduation and how amazing I felt knowing that I accomplished a goal in my life that many are unable to achieve.

Just last week I stepped foot at my old high school once again, but this time it was to watch my youngest brother graduate. I was very excited. I was so excited I could barely contain myself. But really, why would you want to? I have seen my brother clock  in so much time when it came to his school, both in the classroom as well as outside of the classroom. It is very exciting to see all of his hard work begin to pay off.

Two of my aunts on my dad's side of the family came out to celebrate with us, along with my brother's girlfriend and a few family members of her family. We got together before the graduation to eat and exchange gifts. When the time came, we all got ready and traveled down to the school. Man, it was PACKED! there were so MANY PEOPLE there that we had to stand. I wasn't upset about it though, I was just excited to witness this moment in time.

In preparation for the night my sister and I created a congratulations sign that we held up throughout the night. Anytime that my brother walked by us, we would through the sign into the air and hoot and holler in excitement, hoping to get his attention. Of course he ignored us.

It was a great night. In order to get a better idea of the night, please watch the video and leave a comment.
