Ever since I was a boy, I've wanted to graduate from college. My family worked hard, but nobody went to college. My father worked as an event coordinator and would plan the local graduation ceremony every year. THAT ROLE WAS THE CLOSEST HE'D EVER GOTTEN TO A COLLEGE GRADUATION. I worked hard and earned a full-ride scholarship to any state college. You can imagine how excited my family was for me on my graduation day! What verb tense and aspect are used in the capitalized sentence? simple present simple past past perfect past progressive
