Five years ago, I graduated with a BA in psychology. I remember the morning of graduation, I drank mimosas with my friends, got all dolled up, and was so excited that I finished college. My parents, siblings, and my second parents all came and I could feel how proud of me they all were. I didn't have a job yet, but I knew I was moving to DC to live with my sister. I was ready to leave the college life behind and start the next chapter in my life.
Today, I graduate with a BS in Nursing. My parents and siblings are here to celebrate with me. I am even wearing the same cap and gown! Just as it was five years ago, I don't have a job lined up, I'm a little scared of not knowing what lies ahead, but am so ready to start this new chapter. I also feel a bit sad. I didn't picture my life like this 5 years ago. I didn't think I'd be starting over. But I am ready for this new phase and am so thankful for being able to go back to school and begin a new career path.
So today, I begin my new journey. Come along for the ride :)

Five years ago I barely even knew you! I remember you and K showing up to graduation half buzzed and I was not. I felt so out of place with you two. Now, you are one of my best friends and we've had SO many fun adventures together. I've had the pleasure of watching you grow and change and evolve. I like this Pam that I know now. You are wonderfully brave for starting over and you will be great. Five years is nothing when you think about a lifetime. Be happy, that's all that matters. I am so proud of you and wish I could be there to celebrate with you. I guess we will have to save that for when I visit you in LV. xoxo.
