My sister graduates next Wednesday.
Well, I'm happy for her and all, I'm just upset about the fact that my dad won't be there. Our dad died when I was 8 and she was 10. She doesn't even seem as upset about as me. If I'm this bad about hers, I can't imagine how I'll be when it's time for me to graduate in 2 years. It's going to kill me. Going through the rest of my life without him is going to be hell.
I wonder who's going to walk me down the isle when I get married?
Blah. Just venting.
She's learnt to live with it, so should you, I'm sure if your father had a say in the matter he would not want you to mourn, just remember what he's done for you.

Just because she doesn't seem so upset doesn't mean she isn't.
She's probably keeping it bottled up inside.
You should try to talk to her about it.
It might help you!

It'll be hard. You guys will have it harder than most, but you can still find a positive out of it all. If your Gramps is still around, he could walk you down the isle, or even your Mom. Honestly, its your choice. A few of my friends have a strong hate for their Dad's, and they're having their Mom's walk them down the isle.
At Graduation, when it gets to be your time, you'll be somewhat in your sisters shoes. Maybe she's focusing on leaving and finally finishing school, where as you, right now, are focusing on the negatives (not that you shouldn't not focus on them, because you should).
First off, I'm sorry about your dad. She probably does care but doesn't want to show it for you, since you are younger and all. I know my brother tries to keep himself together when things are going bad for me. Also, you have a while until you graduate so I wouldn't spend to much time pondering how you are going to feel. Even if he isn't there physically, he is there in spirit (if you believe in that..). He'll be proud when you graduate and I seriously doubt he would want you upset on such a big day. Just enjoy it, he would have wanted it that way.
