Good on you for looking to the future and not being stuck in the celebratory moment.

However, if your parents want you to walk, you should. It's not really for you, never was. You know the hours of work and bullshit makework you've had to deal with, and it's all in the past for you. You're ready to move on to the next big thing for you.

But like I said, it's not for you. It's for them, the people who support you. Your mom, dad, grandma grandpa, whomever. think of it as a small thank you for their support.
