This tweet describes exactly how I felt at the end of my college experience. There were certain events/celebrations that I had spent four years waiting and getting excited for, that I was supposed to have, that I will never get to experience. As a drama major, I was supposed be have my first leading role in a show in college. In my sorority, there were all these senior-only events that I had been looking forward to since freshman year that I had thought about for so long. I never even got to say goodbye to many of my friends. I have to move home because of COVID, and no longer get to pursue my post-grad plans. FUCK COVID-19
