As much as I love NYU, I have a huge connection to my high school. I had an absolutely amazing four years there and still keep in touch with a lot of the faculty. Naturally, then, I went back to visit two weeks ago to say hi to some people and my cousins who now go there.
The weirdest part though, was when I went to the graduation this past Saturday. One of my cousins just graduated from there and will be attending Mount St. Mary College in NY in the fall. I surprised her and attended the graduation. It was so strange to be going back to the graduation three years later, and to be on the other side of the stage. It also showed me how much my high school really means to me--it was great to be back!
