Milestones

Time flies by so fast you hardly notice. I graduated from residency last night. There was a convocation ceremony, speeches were made, photographs taken. I wore a brand new suit with a lime green tie that I had been saving for a special occasion. We ate chocolate cake and went up, one by one, to the podium to receive our diplomas. I sat next to Arif and watched Saniya glow with pride when his name was called. Cameras flashed around us all night. I can't believe it's been three years.
