We're done!
Graduation was yesterday. My diploma is so beautiful (my pin, however, is not). It was so surreal, I'm still not sure if I feel like it's over. I cried so much. I didn't intend to cry that much. I usually never cry in public, but I just couldn't control myself. I was mainly crying because of my friends who are going far away, and even the ones who will be close because it won't be the same anymore. We won't be together all day, everyday. I think I almost squeezed Jien to her death right after the wailing wall, right at my emotional peak. But I was also crying simply because I'm graduating. I didn't really realize until a few days ago just how much I love Emma Willard, and it's much harder to let go than I thought it would be That school has been my life for four years, and I've been thinking that if I had never gone, I would be a completely different person. Ok, I'm done, but I was entitled to my one sentimental entry.
Anyway, everyone was gorgeous at Bacc and Graduation. The senior party in the library after Bacc was actually SO MUCH FUN. They had delicious chocolate covered strawberries which I immediately got on my dress, so my mother started calling me 'Chocolate Boob.' And a band played super fun dance songs and we danced in the courtyard, and 12 tones sang and it was amazing- that was one of the saddest things ever, because I love 12 tones so so so so so so much. I've beeb listening to the cd a lot again, and I don't even mind the pitchy parts anymore, I'm just glad we made it because it just brings back so many good memories. Graduation, as I already mentioned, was extremely emotional and beautiful, and afterwards I was completely exhausted. I made it to Fave's house for a little while, but then I had to come home because I had to babysit early this morning (ps these are the world's cutest children, so cute in fact that I actually enjoy babysitting them and we all know how i usually loathe said activity).
So here is a list of important/interesting things I have learned, witnessed and/or done the past few days:
1) Big, black bug sunglasses are the world's hottest accessory, especially on me.
2) 3 way girl spooning (they claim it was unintentional)
3) me and kelly being told our cuddling was obscene
4) my evil cat face/hiss. enough said.
5) insane dancing in the middle of a hip coffee shop is extremely entertaining for all
6) rasberry lattes are very delicious and cute
7) Gretchen's mother is the best present-giver in the world.
8) my family sometimes doesn't love me (i.e. they abandon me at graduation with millions of piles of crap to carry)
9) my teachers sometimes do love me (i.e. they both supplied the piles of presents and offered to help carry them after aforementioned family abandoned me)
10) the word wunderkind. good thing i know now, because apparently i was one in 8th grade.
11) in our group of friends we have a techno wizard, math genius, and movie star smile, among others. never knew that before
12) CASEY SOMETIMES CRIES. dont worry, im not making fun of you LP, i think it's adorable, just very strange
13) speaking of LPs, we spotted an LP SWEATSHIRT in lake placid
14) emma willard now has its own water bottles. wtf?
15)it is extremely hard to sing the alma mater while crying. in fact, don't try, it just sounds awful
16) if your name is cassidy constance daloia and you are wearing a white dress of any kind, refrain from eating because you will inevitably spill something on it
17)cutest moment: tie between holding teenie's hand while we sang our last 12ers song and walking emma to her car after graduation
18) random moment: my mom saying "wow, you two could be sisters" when emma and i took a picture together. is she blind?
So, I'm going to try to post some of the cutest pictures in this thing. Emma, I may need your help with this. Also, I'm making a scrapbook of senior year. It's going to be gorgeous. I love my little muffinheads. And Buddha, we should start looking at dates for a road trip, because you know how crazy everyone's schedule gets.
