All good things...

Well, it's official: I am now done with grad school and my assistantship. Today was really anticlimatic since I didn't walk at graduation. In fact, I kept forgetting that I was even graduating all day.

I think that this next week or so is going to be really difficult as reality sets in that I am leaving.

It's going to be hard to be without my job and to not be a student: two things that have in many ways defined who I am these past two years.

My friends are all leaving one by one to go home to their families for the summer, while others are moving into their first apartments or celebrating graduation with their families and friends.
I'm super excited for them, but at the same time, I think I'm feeling really left out of the excitement.

Oh well. Shouldn't I be more excited about my new job and moving to Japan?

Sigh...
