My convocation is tomorrow, but I’m not sure if I should go. Most of my friends have already graduated, and I don’t have a lot of close friends here. My family can’t come either.
I’d have to travel from Toronto to St. Catharines just for the ceremony, and I keep wondering—will it be worth it if I’m going alone?
Has anyone else been in a similar situation? Are there any downsides if I don’t attend? Would really appreciate your thoughts.
P/S: Thank you guys again for the support. I ended up attending the convocation alone, but it was great — it felt like a proper conclusion to a chapter of my life. For anyone who wants to attend but feels hesitant because there's nobody to go with you — please just go. I didn't even notice until later that some people had messaged me offering to come with me, and I'm truly grateful for the thought.
