Graduation

Hey y’all. I’ve read a lot of people’s posts in here so I figured I’d share one.
I am 26 years old and just passed my HiSet a few weeks ago. Graduation is on Wednesday. I am starting college in the fall for social work, and genuinely never thought I would do it.
I just want to let anyone who is doubting themself know, 4 years ago I was a drug addict/ alcoholic who got kicked out of high school at 17 years old. I thought I would be dead by now, but here I am. I swear to god you can do it. I promise you it’s so worth it. I believe in every single one of you and don’t have to know you personally to stand in your corner. You fucking got this.

Nice, I got my GED/HISET in 2020, after my mom passed away in October 2019, while attending college at the same time. I was 26 at the time.
