Comment:

My little brother is graduating from high school this weekend, so I made him this mix to mark the occassion. While my past college graduation mixes have been a little more "Grown-up" and upbeat, this mix discusses some of the sadness that goes with the end of high school. Somehow for me, it seemed a bit more bittersweet and less celebratory after high school, knowing I really was growing up and I thik that leaves a little lonliness -- its just you and you're not really old enough to know who you are yet. With that in mind, there are a few sadder songs towards the end of the mix, but I think he'll enjoy it :)
