here goes
i put on my uniform for the last time. no "last week" or "second last day". this is it. the very last time i am required to wear these pants and this shirt. this is it ladies and gentlemen. i am nervous for this exam. and nervous for finishing. finishing high school. i am more than ready. but my stomach is in knots anyways. it doesn't seem to realize that i've already moved on. it doesn't seem to care that my mind is already out of high school and has been for over a year now. my stomach... it aches this morning. it aches to remind me that i still do care. that this is a big deal. that i will be emotional.

that i've made it.
