Still fighting it. Thank you, Muse. I would really appreciate that.

I have no one "special" to share this with all of my friends from my cohort are are off celebrating with their loved ones/lovers, and I am alone.
As always.
What is so wrong with me?
Firstly, congratulations on being valedictorian!
Secondly, I know that feeling.. of having someone who was the main or a big reason why you did so much to achieve something, but then when you do, that person isn't there anymore.
*hugs*

Congratulations indeed! Quite an impressive feat.
mountainvista said:I think it was doubly rough because I had no one there at the ceremony to celebrate, because my kids were at their aunt's house. It just didn't occur to anyone that perhaps, just perhaps, last night was a big deal to me. It just underscores the feeling that I only matter to people insofar as what they can take from me. They only think of me when they need me to do a favor for them. Other than that I may as well go screw myself.
It's kind of demoralizing. And all of my classmates went off with their family members to go out to dinner and celebrate their accomplishments and I went home alone to drink and get maudlin.
Well now I know I shouldn't drink alone, ever, even if it's a celebratory tipple. I don't drink much these days anyway, because who can afford to go out, right?
At any rate, it's a new day I guess.

I think you're quite an inspiration to me, mv. You're strong to go through all that you've been through.. and to still keep going.
