21 times Tumblr understood graduation better than you


Graduation is terrifying – no, seriously it is! Just ask our ultimate YA girl-crush, Lara Jean from Jenny Han’s epic YA trilogy.

In Jenny’s latest book, ‘Always and Forever, Lara Jean’, Lara is having the BEST year of her life. She’s a senior and completely smitten with boyfriend, Peter.

If that wasn’t enough to be ecstatic about then Lara’s Dad is also getting remarried to their next door neighbour, Ms. Rothschild and her big sis’ Margot is coming home for the wedding.

It’s not all smooth sailing, however. Big changes are on the horizon and Lara’s got some major life decisions she needs to make. Where will she go for college? What does that mean for her and Peter?

Ugh, we’re getting stressed just thinking about Lara’s worries – let alone trying to deal with our own.

Lara Jean is totally slaying Instagram and you should 100% check her out

17 posts that prove high school is 110% cringe

QUIZ: Worm your way out of these awkward situations and we’ll match you with your next read

Tumblr is thankfully on hand to help, though. We’re complete addicts when it comes to the site, so obvs we had to hunt down the moments when users understood graduation better than us – lol!

We’re not gonna lie, there are plenty of them. But hearing about how other people dealt with their post high-school concerns will make you feel so much better about your own.

Heck, we’ve even thrown in a few funny stories and pics of sassy grad caps.

After all (as the saying goes) if you don’t laugh, you’ll cry and we’re 99.9% sure enough tears will be spilled with our BFFs when we finally graduate, thank you very much.
