Original: I’ve graduated from university few days ago, and now I’m feeling sad about the reality. I can never confidently introduce me as a student and ask for the pardon from others. During my university time, I felt really good, because I’m the youngest one when I was not in the campus. Now, I feel I lost a place to get back and I only can go/get? back (to) home. I can still remember the time when I go travel, I feel it was very cool, because I can pay for my own trip even I am still a student.

Edited: I graduated from university a few days ago, and now I’m feeling sad about reality. I can never confidently introduce myself as a student or use it as an excuse for making mistakes. During my time at university, I felt really good because I was the youngest one when I was not on campus. Now, I feel lost (or “I feel out of place”) and I only can go back home. I can still remember when I used to travel, I felt it was very cool that I could pay for my own trips even though I was still a student.
