graduation was awesome. i graduated with honors, and i was surprised to hear so many people yell for me. i really thought i was gonna walk up there and have it be so silent.. all of us girls wore these silly star glasses and shoved bottles of bubbles in our dresses to blow later. by the way i bought this sexy little number today..ha it was a little riskay for me. but its all good. so ive never seen the stadiums SO packed. my class is huge...later we busted out with some beach balls. haha the rotc teacher ripped them open when he got his hands on them lol. they sang our class song...in my life by the beatles...then they worked in the song i dare you to move into the principals speech. ha it was just awesome..i got teary eyed when they talked about saying goodbye to your friends..and when the Val made the friends "lord of the rings speech" (agnes u would have LOVED IT)...cause i definately thought of noelle and all the people close to me. i definately thought that graduation would be classy and people would be quiet and cheer when it was appropriate..but our class is so outa hand..it was fFUN though. theres so many kids that theres no way they can make everyone sit in perfect silence and perfectly still...i think we definately showed that were a party class..with all the screaming, standing ovations, and cheering we did..ive never seen the graduations ive gone to look like so much fun. but maybe thats just cause i was part of it.the sad thing was after it was over we had to march back into the school...so everyone was scattered and i couldnt get pictures with ANYONE cause i couldnt find them..and plus my parents had the cameras..i thought we would get to go back onto the field..but i went into homeroom and handed in my cap and gown, got my class photo, my mug and tassle, my diploma, and some other papers...and headed back outside....along the way people were saying bye to me and good luck with my military career...and i cried a little....im so thankful for the ones that built little friendships with me there..and even though i wasnt best friends with most of them..they still made my time there a little easier...man im gonna miss sam stone. she invited me to her toga party..but i might be gone by then....it was just sad cause i know i dont have the summer to hang out..and when i get to come home on leave everyone will be at college. ahh im gonna miss anatomy with alika tara and krystal. shit its just sad..im not gonna see them like i use to...those 3 made my days a little bit funnier with all the crazy shit we did....ahh im rambling.....
but it meant a lot that noelle came tonight...im gonna be a mess at groves graduation. afterwards the fam plus chad noelle and kiersten went to dinner at applebees....then back home to chill for the night.
i just cant believe its over...i was telling john that it still wasnt as emotional as graduating from basic training, and it didnt mean as much..but it still meant something...basic was something i knew was gonna end in a few weeks...ive been going to school for 13 years. it was a different type of graduation..obviously my military one we were completely silent and still....and this one was just sooo laid back and fun.
im just glad that the girls decided to make graduation one BIG FUN PARTY. i was invited to go out to montanna west with them tonight..but i wanted to spend time with the fam....aww john wore his dress blues tonight: ] he looks so handsome..i have a REALLy good pic of him on his 50 cal sitting inside the tank that i wanna post...hmmm..maybe tomorrow
well its bedtime...congrats to the btown class of 05
