I finally did it!!!!!! I'm graduating from College

I will be walking in graduation tomorrow night and I didn't think that this night would ever happen. I will be recieving my Associates in Applied Sciences in Medical Office Asissiting, it is a 2 year degree but it has taken 5 years for me to get it done. With all the hospitalizations nd everything caused by my ex. I finally have my life on track and I feel so go about my self!! Well I need to to. My dad is calling. Rachel
