My blokey is graduating from uni next Friday, and I want to go along with him. Seems normal to me, yeah? Well, the thing is that he only has two seats to the actual ceremony. He's promised one to his gran who is travelling down for it, and the other is left open to either his mum or me.
I know that everyone is instantly going to say "oh, his mum should go!" and for the most part, I agree. However, I feel like I almost "deserve" to go for lack of a better word, because I've helped him through everyothing in his four years at uni. I've stood by him when things went wrong, I spent hours upon hours reading and re-reading his work and disertation and I feel like it's the end a journey we've both completed together. When he first left for uni, it was a test for both of us. And now it's over, I want to see him graduate. Is that so bad?
Frankly, I wanna go!
Do you agree with me or am I being really childish? It's so hard, because his mum dooesn't need to do any of that stuff I did; she's his mum and that's enough! Which is fair enough. But oohh *sigh*
...I want to go!
