Buona Festa della Donna!

When I look at the cap cradled in my arms, I remember my first day in college—stepping into the campus barely knowing anything, fueled only by a fragile dream of making it to the end of the tunnel.
But dreams require more than just wishing; they require the courage to endure the seasons in between.
When I feel the weight of the hood I carry, I think of the research papers and the all-nighters that defined my final years. It is heavy and challenging—a physical reminder of the nights I chose caffeine over sleep, held close now because the victory is finally within reach.
When I see the smile reflected in the mirror, I don’t just see joy. I see the ghosts of the cries and frustrations I had to endure for four years just to earn the right to hold these garments. Every tear shed was a stitch in the fabric I wear.
When I think of the shoes that keep me standing tall, I think of the friends and instructors I met along the way. They are the invisible strings that tied my daily experiences together, keeping me steady through every frantic walk to class and every long day in the library. They shaped the form I am today.
And when I think of the moment I will finally march across that stage to be hooded and capped, I think of my parents. Every step toward that diploma is grounded in the sacrifice and hard work they poured into my education. In that moment, I will be standing on their shoulders as much as my own feet.
College has taught me many things, but as I prepare to step out of the woods, I carry with me a specific kind of courage. It’s the resilience found in the climb—up and down those stairs that once felt like a ladder toward an unreachable finish line. Step by step, those stairs led me out of the thicket.
Are we out of the woods yet? I believe so.
The victory of crossing the river and seeing the rainbow speaks through the reflection I see in the mirror today.
Are we in the clear yet? Good.
