I was exhausted from working my two jobs over the weekend and was not looking forward to the graduation ceremony. I knew it was going to be a long afternoon. I kept thinking of all the places I would rather be,and made up my mind that I wasn't going to enjoy myself.

Maybe her dad who passed away a few years ago and didn't get to see her reach her goal,or her grandmother who had always wanted to attend college,but her family didn't have the money ... The selfish?ness in me melted away,and I realized why I was there.

"Kimberly Anne Conway,graduating Magna Cum Laude (以优等成绩毕业) .”She walked across the stage and received this piece of paper that meant so many things.

She attended college while working full time,and she studied extremely hard. Many times she felt like quitting.

It takes a special person to stick with a goal as long as she has.

I love you,Kim,and I want you to know that I admire you for that symbolic piece of pa?per that will soon adorn (使光彩) a wall in your house.
