Last week, I went to Loganville, Georgia with my grandmother for my cousin's high school graduation. It took us seven hours to drive there, including the four stops we made. The trip wasn't so bad. It was actually pretty fun. I couldn't stop thinking about getting out of North Carolina and into Georgia. I was super excited to see my family because I hadn't seen them in six months.
We finally got to Loganville and I was eager to get out of the car to see my family. My aunt was in the garage with my younger cousin. I visited with them for a little bit and then my older cousin, who had been at graduation rehearsal, and my uncle, who had been at work, came home and we all sat around in the garage and talked for awhile. The next day, my cousin and I went to the mall to get her shoes to wear for her graduation. We got back to the house around 2:00 pm and everybody was getting ready for the graduation dinner. At 4:00 pm we left the house and we went to this restaurant, where we were going to be eating on the roof. It was the most amazing view. We ate dinner and had cake. Around 6:00 pm, everybody left the restaurant to go home and change for the graduation. We got to the arena around 8:00 pm and it was crowded. I watched my cousin walk across the stage and I was ecstatic when she grabbed her diploma. After her graduation, I saw K and gave her a hug and told her congratulations. Then, everyone left and went home. The last day we were there, my uncle barbecued and we had a great lunch. Around 4:00 pm, my grandmother and I left to come back to North Carolina.
Overall, the trip was fun and relaxing. Seeing my cousin walk across the stage and get her diploma really made me want to go back to school. The graduation ceremony was very exciting. I loved seeing my family and spending time with them. I got to know my aunt better, which I enjoyed very much. I can't wait to see them again, so we can make more memories and have a blast like we did this time.
