Crying a lot because you just gave away your cat for the summer AKA the longest/best relationship you’ve ever had, and also left everything familiar to you and have to walk away from all the relationships you’ve spent years building hoping they’ll be there for you when you get back and have 1 billion percent anxiety about your lack of ability to speak Spanish and also are faced with the enormous task of packing up your entire life for storage within the next ten hours?

Great! Refill your wine glass and fuel those emotions into an all night cleaning/packing spree sans coffee!

Oh wait, it’s just me? Great! Refill my wine glass and continue to cry a lot!

I graduate on Saturday, and I feel as though I’m in the same place that I was four years ago....

Fri, 10 May 2013 00:20:33 -0500

I graduate on Saturday, and I feel as though I’m in the same place that I was four years ago. Senior year in both cases turned me into something I despise. I poured so many of my favorite parts of myself into a job that didn’t give me anything back, so I was only left with the parts of me that I hated. And then when I ran out of things to give, I was criticized for it.

I graduate on Saturday and I should feel happy and accomplished and proud, but I only feel like a failure. Because I let something change me in a way that I didn’t like. I came to college to be happy—the best years of my life! But I am just so sad. Who is this girl? I don’t know her. I don’t know her and I don’t like her.

I graduate on Saturday and I don’t like myself. So I think I’ll leave for a while. I’m going to leave the things that have been holding my head underwater all year long and I’m going to go and be alone on a journey that I know will change me. It’s inevitable. So I’ll go and I’ll let myself change and then maybe when I come back I’ll find something that I like.

I graduate on Saturday and in two weeks I turn 22 years old. That day will mark 9, 13, 16, 22 years of constant, unwavering self-hatred. Because when you tell your child that she’s worthless, fat, ugly, stupid… what reason would she have not to believe you? You are her mother, abusing your power, abusing your child.

I graduate on Saturday and you will not be there. You are not invited. You won’t see me walk across the stage to welcome my diploma. You won’t get letters from me in Mexico. You won’t see me get my masters, become licensed, become successful. You’ll never know my art. You won’t hear my music. You won’t get a phone call if I get hurt. You won’t see my first house or meet my boyfriends. You won’t get calls from me asking for your help with the laundry, an outfit, a recipe. You won’t be at my wedding. You don’t get to see me grow up because you lost that privilege the day you started to bully a little girl. You are not my mom. You are dead to me, and that’s how the important people in my life will know you. Dead.

I graduate on Saturday. I don’t feel the way I should. This year I’ve reopened every old wound and added a few more to boot. Battered, bleeding, I will accept my diploma. And then I’ll go away for a little while to heal. I don’t know how much of my life will be here waiting for me when I get back. I don’t have have a place to live. I don’t have a job. It’s all scary and uncertain and different and challenging but that’s okay because I graduate on Saturday. I have my whole life ahead of me.

I have to say goodbye to this face today :(
