2009

The date of the specific day hasn't even arrived and I am more excited than I could say, I
distinctly remember the feeling of excitement and elation and absolutely absurd fear,
fear that this should fail and i should be another statistic before I'm 22. fear that everything will
not work out to my specific plan even if that is the way that plans go.
But still the excitement returns and I shall be a taken woman when my diploma comes and I
take that silly walk in my robes with Dane and Baileigh. Maybe on stage I will say again,
"Dane oh dane how I wish you knew." Maybe he still doesn't get it. He probably finds some coincidence thinking it's someone with the same name, different body. Silly boys.
Maybe that will be my acceptance speech. "I'd like to thank my friends for getting me this far, and Dane oh Dane how I wish you knew."
