Coming of Age/Getting my Diploma

When I hold my High school diploma, I get such a feeling of accomplishment and self-growth. I'll never forget that day. June 6, 2002, the day of my graduation. I have only felt that kind of emotion on the day my son was born. I was both excited and scared all at once. This special event took place in the Weber State Browning Center. The building had a long twisted staircase that lead to the second floor. …showed first 75 words of 1032 total…

…showed last 75 words of 1032 total…a day not only filled happiness, but also of self-growth. That was the day I realized that I was going to have to start to doing thing on my own. I learned I was not always going to have my mother there to do things for me. It comforted me to know that I had a strong support from my family. This days was the day I started to walk on my own two feet.
