"Sharon Westfield, please come on to the stage!" The crowd applauds or her. "WOO SHARON!" I yell for my best friend. We had known each other ever since we were little and today was finally our graduation. Sharon had always been the smarter one of us. She had made her way trough highschool easily, and had always gotten good grades. She was going to study laws in Boston. Me on the other hand, had always struggled with school. I have severe dyslexia, and concentration problems, making tests and homework basically hell. I was going to TheatreCollege in La, my dream since it was established.

Sharon smiles with her certificate in her hand. The crowd cheers for her again. This kept going on for a little while, as there were a lot of certificates to hamd out.

"Up next; Mandy Straets!" I heard Sharon yell for me, like I did for her. I smiled and walked onto the stage. My tutor was handing out the certificates and did a little speech for every student. "Mandy has always been one of my special cases, she was the star of our school with all her singing and acting..." I already don't listen anymore, this will be some bullshit talk, I don't even like Mrs. Shire a.k.a my tutor. Can I get my certificate please?

"But ladies and gentlemen she made it, and here is your well deserved certificate!" The woman gives me a hug and hands me over the paper I had been longing to get forever. I put my hand up in the air and a tear streams down my flustering cheek.

I am so damn proud of myself.
