I'm Not Done Yet

As a graduating senior I'm constantly asked whether or not I'm excited "to be done". My answer is "Yes, I'm almost there." However what I really want to say is "Please stop asking me that. I'm not done yet".

I understand that people are excited for me and want to share in the moment but the moment has not come yet. Today, I moved back into my dorm, tomorrow I start class and in four months I graduate. I am in no way excited about graduation just yet because when I stepped foot on campus I realized how much work still needed to be done.

When May 1st comes I will be over the moon because it will be 17 days before I get my diploma. Until then I would appreciate it if others wouldn't get excited before I have the chance to.
