Mr. Peaches's World

Mr. Peaches, until now, has been living in the shadows of my waived course.  The news that I have finished school was entirely unexpected and due to this fact my "graduation" has been celebrated and doted over by me, Mr. Peaches, and my entire family.

However, Mr. Peaches graduated this past weekend as well, and this was an hito that he never thought he would accomplish.  He started college at a University at the tender age of 19, after taking one year off.  He continued there for three years until he had to leave due to some difficult family circumstances and an interesting job opportunity.  When he finished the job and got through the hard family stuff, he got a job that paid well and didn't require a degree, and that is where we met.  (At this point in the story, Mr. Peaches is actually much smarter than I am because we were paid the same amount of money and I owed twice as much in student loans.)

Until it got to the point that Mr. Peaches couldn't stand working at that job anymore and he decided to go back to school.

Since then, Mr. Peaches has worked extra hard to finish in three semesters.  He worked two, sometimes three jobs at a time, while managing his schoolwork and the housework and dealing with me (obviously no easy task).  He decided that he will become a lawyer and has done everything in his power to make it happen, all while juggling the above responsibilities.  Now he starts law school at a top-ranked University in three months.

There was a time in his life that Mr. Peaches did not think he would ever have a college degree.  Now he has one and is on the fast-track to much more.  You've done well, Mr. Peaches.

¡Felicidades!
