i nearly cried reading these posts! I knew id be hysterical. We had Wed nite at the Cathedral 4 grad mass which was beautiful, and my bestie mad me sit next to her, so i bawled sooo much! we had to leave quietly to get cleaned up b4 we had to get our medals. lol.
Then on thurs was grad breaky bbq wit teachers, tho i was too busy organising things 4 the assembly and pressies (im Tutor Group rep). then tutor group (cried bout the card my tutor group teacher wrote me. BTW she gave everyone a Shakespere quote...i got the one from the tempest...
"How many goodly creatures are there here!
How beauteous mankind is!
O brave new world,
That has such people in't!",
way to go remindin me of english! my friend got "a rose of any other name would smell as sweet", cos her last name is rose.)
then i had to drive up the road to buy cards. stress. then we had morning tea off yr 11. yet still to busy and stressed to enjoy. then ppl signed shirts, took photos, while i wrote a speech.
then it was time 4 the actual assembly. walked in sat down to relax then..."we would like to invite Yr Coordinator Kerri Beezley and Kate lynch on to the stage for an introduction" like damn! and i hadnt gotten up to writin this speech yet, so i improvised my intro 4 the power point that i spent like 2 mths on. it was called The end of an era, and i was a look at the past 18 yrs of our lives and the things in them like the tv, events, toys, films and music. then i FINALLY sat down and it wasnt workin 4 ages. but wen i actualy started it was the most amazing feeling. the reaction of the 1000 ppl watching was priceless, they laughed, they smiled, they cheered, they clapped ,they cringed and they just loved it. it was xactly what i wanted. i just sat there with the biggest smile on my face, i was so happy to bring us all 2getha again like that.
anyway then i had to get awards. and i cried during the swlideshow of fotos. and thehn we walked out. and i cried so much.
its just that im never going to c these ppl 5 days a week ever again and it sux cos i like them. im not worried bout security or routine tho, ive changed skools 5 times. but my friends whove been together eva since kindi are lost hey. im ok tho.
