After I walked, I noticed that people were leaving the building as the walking part of the ceremony has just begun, and it's likely that they're not coming back. 5 minutes later, I get a text message from my parents to get out there to take pictures with them before the outside of the building gets crowded. ...

A prayer. It goes on. And this is why I, and many other seniors at Cedarville University, decided not to walk for graduation. At best, a ceremony takes an hour and a half. That is still 90 minutes of me sitting awkwardly in an uncomfortable chair as I listen to someone, whom I have never met, talk about how proud they are of us for graduating.

I'll be graduating this year, and have been contemplating whether or not I choose to actually partake in the ceremony and walk, or just finish up school and get my diplomas later.

The impact of this factor on deciding to walk or not is different for everyone. For me, because I have already walked at a college graduation, I am less inclined to spend money on another. Adding up the price of the cap and gown, announcements, pictures, and an outfit makes the final outcome of the event feel like a burden.

I have always had a love for travel and Disney, so this was the perfect trip for me. I had the opportunity to see the Norwegian fjords while having a Frozen sing-a-long with Anna and
