    As I am waiting on the side steps of the stage, I patiently stood as they read off our names alphabetically. My hand is temperate, as I am clutching onto the chilled metal stair railing. I could hear the surrounding people in the room clapping and cheering, as it echoed throughout the building as each person was walking across the stage to receive their own diploma. I could feel the butterflies in the pit of my stomach, as I had been waiting for this day for as long as I could remember. The day…

I wanted that, because if it 's one thing I noticed. It was that I…

As a result, I would always get kicked out of class by teachers for distracting other students. So I did not have good grades. I…
