Good for you Song. Have fun. I never went to my graduation. I was just so glad and relieved to be done with high school that I never wanted to see the place again.

Hey, have a blast, keep a stash of bail money, and let the sun drench your face.

Congratulations Song. I know how wonderful you are feeling right now. After I graduated I remember feeling so proud and so grown up. I felt like I had the world in the palm of my hand. Imagine my disappointment later in life when I realized I had a steaming pile of Sh*t in the palm of my hand.

Seriously though the world is yours I see greatness in your future.

[sister rose]

You did it, Song! :D

Thank you!

I went to Project Graduation afterwards, so I've been asleep part of the day, had my last horse back riding lesson for the season, and then have been spacing out. I almost missed this message! It seems like three days since I graduated, it seems like weeks since exams. Everything is at a strange, scary pace while there is so much to do.

I was first! They lined up by height! For the first time (at least during practice) I was completely at peace with being short. I even wore flats to keep my position. A person with a last name that usually means you're next to the last (though not last enough to be remembered) got to get their diploma first! That was almost a problem during the ceremony, I realized, too late to do anything about it, that I had not eaten anything. I sort of swayed once, and Nana noticed I was even paler than usual, but other than that I was fine.

I feel good, being done with highschool, but I kind of feel sorry as well. I finally learned, during my senior year, that not everyone is so bad. I don't want to be best friends with everyone, anymore, but it was nice to be on speaking terms with them rather than shoved off into some corner with a book. I was especially sorry to say goodbye to a few teachers whose rooms I've kept as safe havens. So many of them, even ones that I knew were frusterated with my lack of effort at times, when I tried their patience, gave me a hug and held up the line just a bit. Lessons learned too late, but I wouldn't trade them.

It's never too late SongDragon. There will be other situations in wich you can use what you learned here. That's the interesting thing of life.

You are the greatest!
