Graduation and Beyond.....
Lets start with pre-graduation: Well, i think that i was trying to ignore it at first, but it finally got too close to ignore any more so i faced it. It was one of the most bitter sweet experiences i have ever gone through. On one hand, im getting out of school, on the other, im losing a large portion of what made me , me...... i cant say that anything on this earth or the next could make me go from 5th - to 10th grade again but the rest of it was fun... i dont think i ever told anyone about this but i had made some goals for my high school carreer and i hope i accomplished them. 1) Start an annual concert (May Music Fest and Mark Nestler will be back next year) 2) Figure out some way of doing my part to create some school spirit in a place where there was one (broadcast journalism (i dont know if it really created spirit but it was something that everyone wanted to see=)) 3) Even if i didnt like the place or the teachers, have friends that could get me through it all. (thanks guys) 4) Prepare myself for what lies ahead (only time can tell) Here is the point where i publicly announce THANKYOU for all those who hung in there with me through school..... Then came graduation day..... son...... Practice at 10 in the morning trying not to hit kathy darling....... very hard........ some one tell her to never wear tanktops! save some eyes, wear a parka women..... Went home and slept all day. got up and got ready for graduation.... what a weird surreal feeling... even though we were there, it didnt feel real..... stayed strong through it all until megan got up there to speak and then i teared up but the dams held. then after we through our hats up, the battel was on with the tears, made it through everyone w/o crying until once again, i got to megan, then the gates bust open....... then on the graduation party at my house. Jodi made a movie for me of my school days. She did a good job, props to her....... Project Graduation wow..... umm lets see, let me start with the hypnotist. He had me singing like N'sync, Brittany Spears, The Jungle Song, George Straight, and more. I also was turned into a dog, i attacked samantha nolans mom and ripped through her pants leg trying to pull her. all kinds of stuff. and word to the wise, dont try to fight the hypnotist, it hurts............ Then we spent the rest of the night chillin and bidding on prizes. i got a DR Pepper bike and a luggage bag. all set to go on my mormon mission now=) Now that its officially all over, it seems like one big blur..... im going to miss some people. As much as i thought i hated Buna High, it made me who i am and for that i owe alot. From the friends i made thier ever to the enemies..... it all shaped me. I guess everyone lets the events around them mold who they are. The difference is how we let it mold us. negativly or positively. High School has been the time of my life and i can only hope and pray that we dont forget each other too soon.............
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. --Robert Frost Good bye and God Bless, Preston Dale Ferguson Class of 2006 Buna High | |||
