My baby brother, Kris, graduated last week. It was a proud day for us all, especially for my parents - all three of their kids are done with college. Kris and I are 13 years apart in age, so you can imagine what a momentous occasion this was. With our age difference, I've definitely felt like I've had a hand in raising him. In fact, when we were in high school, Niner and I used to talk on the phone while I fetched Kris his bottle of milk. Crazy, right? Graduation day was sunny, but beautiful. Cal State Long Beach is a very nice campus. We all cheered as loud as we could when Kris crossed the stage and accepted that piece of paper. We hung out in campus to take pictures and then celebrated with some hotpot for early dinner. On to new adventures!
