graduation glasses

A sudden state of seeing or acknowledging only the good side of someone (or, more rarely, something) which comes upon realization that you are about to part ways with these people.

The term apparently comes from high school or college graduations, when all your classmates whom you've always considered to be mean, stupid or boring all of a sudden appear to be nice, interesting and friendly.

Person one: I was going to break up with my girlfriend yesterday, but then I couldn't because she suddenly seemed so beautiful.
Person two: Mate, that's graduation glasses.

I would have faith in my brother arriving on time, but he's a gradualist.

graduation

Can be either the greatest moment or the saddest. I thought it would be the greatest but looking back I would give up everything just for one day back in school. Crushes, unfairness, homework, love, friends, idiot teachers, recess, lunch, all that stuff. I miss it all. I find it strange to be looking back right now on this. But I guess the saying they say is true. "You never knew how much fun being a kid really was until your older."

I miss school. There said it.
