So we graduated last Wednesday.. A bit late to post. Hahaha better than nothing.
Caught the bus and met Suzy and Toby on it, then met Adam while walking up the hill. Adam and I got our shirts signed by all our teachers and a couple of friends. I miss Ms Andre's chem class.. ): She was telling the year about how she loved our year 11 chem class the most and she misses being a chem teacher instead of a vp.
Oh and a couple of guys from our year turned up to school with like 200 goon sacks tied together and ran around the place but bolted when Ms Andre arrived.
We headed for the beach after we got all our shirts signed. Gary was so nice, driving everyone there :)
It was a nice day, but we didn't really do much. There were a lot of people there that we didn't really affiliate with (a lot of them got really drunk..) so we went around the shops, got some food, slurpees.. etc.
Adam and I left pretty early and he came over to mine for awhile.
His mom fetched my mom and I around 6.30pm to go to the graduation ceremony together. I'm so surprised I got an honours award! (I really don't know what that is based on, but 12 people got it) And Adam got a Richard Anderson award for Art! (don't really know what that is either.. haha but he's the only one that got it out of 2 Art classes!) There were a couple of performances by my wonderfully talented schoolmates :) And Campbell made a absolutely wonderful and entertaining valedictorian speech, boy that kid can write. He started off by talking about the board of studies, then moved on to talk about how they made us learn about belonging and towards the end he went on to talk about longing to be. Hahaha. You had to be there, it was awesome. I'm jealous about how talented he is, he got so many awards.. pretty much one award for each subject, and for being school captain, and for contributing to the school.. wow.
Anyway the graduation ceremony ended at around 9pm. I've been cooped up at home trying to study ever since, but haven't gotten very far. I don't know why its so hard for me to concentrate. Right now I should be doing my english essay instead of typing up this seemingly useless post and telling myself 'its for the memories'. So off I should go, I should go off.
