[1] Graduation (go back »)

Mood: Full of emotions

Listining to: Imagine by the beetles

Watching: nothing

I knew when I woke up this was going to be a very exciting day. Hell I knew two weeks before this day that this was going to be one of the most important days in my life. The morning I woke up I was feeling a bunch of different emotions at once. I was excited, anxious, nervous, worried, but I knew in the end that I wouldnt change it for the world.

As I sat waiting for my friend  in my dress cloths, I started thinking about all of your memories. Memories that wouldnt be left behind, I started remembering the days as freshman, when i first set out on this new, high end world of socialism. As a freshman i came into highschool thinking i was the shit. After the first day i knew it was not going to be like that. I remember going to lunch with the upperclassmen, in there new hot cars, and thinking how cool I was. How cool was I, driving to lunch with the juniors and seniors. As a freshman i felt important with the seniors, i felt like one of the big guys, As time moved on in highschool and sophmore year came around, that sense of being the shit came back. Oh cool was i, this was my second year here and i could now talk about the freshmen as if i was never one. Sohpmore year was a big change, more partys, crazy partys, aha good times, as junior year rolled along me and my friends drifted apart from one another, we went our seperate ways. i say they changed. in the sense that when my friend chris got his car he became stuck up a little. So i split from them. I beacame friends with someone i never thought i would. Jalima, it was like a new weird friendship. She was black and loud and im mexican and lookin white kid whos not loud. But we became good friends, Me and jalima go to lunch everyday 2nd semester our junior year. BUT then came senior year. We all change, its like lifes just takes us along with it and the unexpected happends. I split from jalima and it was hard.I met my new friends staice, chris, jason, jared, and alyssa and breanna, and we instantly became a tight little group. Jalima i think was jelouse, actually jalima and stacie almost got into a fight in english class. I didnt know which way to go. i guess i sorta chose stacie over jalima, but i remember the times jalima would stick up for me, like when jalima old best friend timura started some drama with me.. jalima ended that friend ship and was about to beat timura up. so when i chose stacie i think that really hurt jalima. But as soon as i started hanging out with stacie, my lil wonderbread girl, life came at me, i matured, changed my style a little, it was weird, instead of partys and drinking it was bonfires and drinking, going to the beach all the time. senior year was a blast, but i lost alot of friends, and i sit here thinking... did they change? or did i?

All this went through my mind as i stayed waiting for stacie to pick me up for graduation. (my parents would of taken me but seniors had to be there 2 hours earlier in case your wondering).

So we stayed inline in alphabetical order in the gym for 2 whole hours. It was hard to think of the memories of highschool, people changting, stomping, screaming, the atmosphere was exciting. At this moment i was veryyyy happy. after two hours we finally started to walk out the the football field where the cermoney was being held. in pairs we took our seats. we sat down and herd about 12 speehes, this was very boring and i just wanted to get my diploma. FINALLY, they started calling us to the stage to get our diplomas (this didnt take long because only 115 seniors graduated out of 397). As i got called up i was shaking with excitement, i recieved my diploma and sat back down. when everyone was finished we decided to surf crowd my friend julio. (hes like 3 feet tall lol). after that it was time to sing our alma matter or whatever. But none of us new that so we decided to say in excitement; we fly high no lie you now this BALLIN. we then we dismissed to go do whatever with our family, this includes pictures and the whole deal with friends and family. i ran to stacie and hugged her. We both said at the same time (which was weird) WE DID IT! we where free, whats next, where will life take us?

and the question: where will life take us?

I learned: dont let life take you, take life with you
